Perth is not the only post-industrial city taking on the challenge of developing its water/riverfront. To start with, here are some recent developments from the USA:
The city of St Louis Missouri hosts a competition here.
Seattle is also running a competition for the foreshore with shortlisted firms presenting their schemes directly to the public here. In a rather unique arrangement– “the winning designer will be selected in part on the strength of their presentation and their response to questions from the public.”
A global sporting franchise, once again, becomes the catalyst for waterfront development – this time in San Francisco.
While, closer to home, Sydney-siders attempt to digest the Barangaroo foreshore development.
