About the event

There are many ways to skin a cat, or a city for that matter. Faculty and associates of the UBC School of Architecture and Landscape Architecture present five provocative and playful perspectives on Vancouver. The series takes you from imagined futures past and present, to the giant sulphur pile in Vancouver Harbour; from the 15th floor of the landmark Electra Building, to the East Side and some of the toniest neighbourhoods in the region. Come experience Vancouver through new eyes.
