Building Design Competition - Round 2
The location I have decided on for the next design competition is a combination of a couple plots of land in downtown Winnipeg, 351-364 Smith Street. I thought Winnipeg would be a good change of pace and scenery, with a starkly different cityscape filled with a different variety of colours and historical elements than Toronto.
The location is very underdeveloped despite being close to Portage and Main. The current uses of these parcels include a large empty parking lot, the Burton Cummings Theatre (a national historic site designated in 1991), a small park, an Enterprise car rental location, and a Giant Tiger.
I propose that we give ourselves three weeks, posting our submissions here on May 14th.
The collection of parcels are shown here in this image:
I'm excited to see what everyone comes up with, good luck everyone!
