This
report represents six weeks of intensive analysis, brainstorming,
synthesizing, and form-making. However, it is only a start. It is
hoped that the research and images contained in this document will
provide the seeds for further investigation and exploration, and
a means for envisioning the future of this urban corridor.

The
report, Scenes on Hastings was prepared in December
2001by the UBC Urban Studio - a joint effort of the UBC Schools
of Architecture, Community and Regional Planning.
The report contains documentation of the four primary design
projects underaken by the studio. In Part One, design
teams provide an analysis of the Hastings Street from three
interpretive frameworks: Myth and Memory, the Garden and the
City, and Routes and Boundaries. Part Two shows how design
teams used mapping as a means of making architectural proposals
(architecture being understood in its broadest sense) at scales
between one block and 100 square KM. Part Three presents
four team proposals for intervening in the corridor defended
on specific ideological, economic, ecological, or social bases
and in such a way that supports the broad goals and objectives
of the studio. Finally, Part Four illustrates more specific
proposals for individual sites along the corridor, taking the
team proposals, presented in Part Three, as a point of departure.
