HERITAGE, LANDSCAPES AND PUBLIC SPACES

Architecture and heritage are integral parts of Concordia University's campuses. Buildings and their surroundings have a notable effect on urban landscapes and public spaces. Depending on how they're used, they can be an anchoring force or under-appreciated. The university is looking to improve is use of culturally significant spaces, guided by the City of Montreal's approach to heritage in both campuses neighborhoods.
