JOIN CITYTALK LIVE TOMORROW

Let’s Talk About Placemaking:

Scaling Impact, Building Community

Thursday, March 6 | 12 p.m. ET | Live Zoom Webinar

Ensuring vibrant, inclusive, and sustainable urban futures through public spaces.

Placemaking is transforming cities—fostering social connection, economic growth, cultural vibrancy, and environmental resilience.

But as cities evolve, how can we amplify these positive outcomes and ensure placemaking best practices are at the forefront of infrastructure and planning decisions?

Join us for CityTalk Live as we dive into "Let’s Talk About Placemaking," our latest publication in collaboration with Canada’s Placemaking Community. We’ll explore powerful case studies, innovative policies, and why now is the time to bring placemaking to the center of city-building conversations across Canada, the U.S., and beyond.
