Victoria, BC’s first parklet is now built and has officially opened to the public! Colleague Miko will continue to work with Fort Street Properties to evaluate and document the parklet over the summer months. The community team for this place making initiative included CitySpaces, Cascadia Architects, Abstract Developments, the Downtown Victoria Business Association, Fabulous Fort, Fort Street Properties and more! The project was funded by a grant by Coastal Community Credit Union.
