Johnston St - imagining the future?

Exhibition & Public Forum

Exhibition:
Tuesday 9th - 13th August @ Chapman & Bailey Gallery, 350 Johnston St, Abbotsford Victoria.
Public Forum and presentation by students:
2.00pm Saturday 13th August
Johnson Street from Fitzroy to Abbotsford is under pressure for major redevelopment.
Residents, commuters, planning authorities, businesses, landowners and developers have widely diverse views on how the street should develop.
Considering issues of traffic, public transport, density, height and community amenity, students in the Master of Architecture program at Melbourne University have developed a range of exciting and challenging options to show that good design can enhance and invigorate communities and the urban environment while providing opportunities for business and development.
The work explores urban design and architectural possibilities for encouraging both urban intensification and socio- cultural sustainability.
