    Check out the image to see the location of all four Hearts. For this engagement exercise, we are only asking for input on one Heart.

    We located four Hearts in Crossroads using a design process that we crafted as a team. The process was inspired by an academic article and what we heard from you at the design workshop.

  • Heart Location

    The image shows the location of the Heart. We chose this heart for two reasons.

    1. We heard that you wanted us to re-think possibilities for the abandoned railroads tracks. We used their footprint to centre the heart frame.

    2. We heard the Firestone site is important. To encourage future development on the Firestone site, we first want to see the surrounding neighbourhood come to life. We placed the Heart frame beside the Firestone site in order to begin this community revitalization.
