QUESTION
Heritage Ottawa Free Public Lecture
From Issue No. 244 | September 09, 2015
Planning for Ottawa as Canadas capital focuses on the Parliamentary and Judicial Precincts. What is happening to these plans now? The Long Term Vision Plan for Ottawas Parliamentary and Judicial Precincts is now the focus of a national controversy, with plans for a monument on a site originally identified for the long planned-for Federal Court.
Speakers: Lyette Fortin, Heritage Consultant, worked as the Director of Architecture Strategic Planning for the House of Commons of the Parliament of Canada; and Robert Allsopp, urban designer, a key figure in the planning and design of the National Capital over the past thirty-five years.
Editors Notes: I saw this lecture in the spring, and it is well worth attending now that Heritage Ottawa is hosting again. (Disclosure--Robert Allsopp is my husband, lucky me!)
