Where's the Square competition

For the past few months, the Vancouver Public Space Network has been holding a design competition to create a new "grand gathering place" in Vancouver – a place for festivals, markets, rallies, buskers and more -- Think Nathan Phillips Square in Toronto, Potsdamer Platz in Berlin, or even Piazza San Marco in Venice. Over 100 design teams signed up for the competition, 13 were short-listed. Now it's time to pick a winner.

Cast your ballot at online, but do it soon! Voting ends Friday May 22.

It's the most fun you’ll have with civic engagement all day :-)

If you’ve got time, come on out to Heritage Hall (Main and 15th) on May 27 (7:00-9:00pm) when the VPSN will announce the winner. It’ll be a great evening. For further reading on the reasoning behind the competition, visit WheresTheSquare.ca.

Oh, and for those who might be interested, this one is my favourite.

Yep. I've already talked to them and they know that I can't go :-)
