What can we learn from our laneways?

These service spaces of the urban grid are increasingly popular sites for vibrant citizen interventions. Inspired by Montreal’s green lanes or Vancouver’s and Toronto’s backyard projects, this year’s CCA Interuniversity Charrette challenges you to apply laneway thinking to a shared space(s) in your city.
