Vancouver’s View Protection Policy: How It Developed and Was Implemented SFU Continuing Studies (City Program) and SFU Urban Studies Dec 6, 2023 : 6:30 pm to 8:30 pm

Join SFU's City Program and SFU Urban Studies for a free lecture on a key policy that has shaped Vancouver's skyline.

Vancouver’s View Protection Policy has shaped downtown Vancouver into one of the most recognizable skylines in the world and ensured views of the city, water and mountains from various viewpoints across the city remain a public commons. Countless views are automatically protected from the dense heart of the downtown out, along the corridors. On December 6, join Larry Beasley and Peter Busby for a talk about how this policy was developed and how it was implemented.

This in-person event will also be live streamed for online attendees. Registration is available through Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/vancouvers-view-protection-policy-how-it-de...
