EKISTICS PLANNING & DESIGN, Canada, Halifax, 2013-2015, Senior designer (Architecture, Urban Design)
Several downtown studies have identified the Cogswell Interchange as an underutilized piece of transportation infrastructure. Redevelopment of this site is one of several initiatives aimed at building on recent successes in the downtown and further growing the Regional Centre.
Following public consultation through HRMbyDesign, The Downtown Halifax Secondary Municipal Planning Strategy and The Cogswell Shakeup, a high-level vision for the area was developed, focusing on high-quality, mixed-use, pedestrian/transit/active transportation-friendly redevelopment, connecting downtown to northern Peninsula neighbourhoods, and acting as a gateway to Downtown Halifax.
