EDDT 231 Planning Research Report

Welcome to my blog on City Planning

This blog is being created to go hand in hand with an applied technology research topic I will be doing in my course "Engineering Design and Drafting Technology" at Thompson Rivers University.

Through my research topic is to look at a block of Vancouver and applying the six principles of sustainable development to understand how to change our communities to become more sustainable.

This will be a work in progress throughout the remaining semester. If anyone has any advice to offer, ideas to suggest, or feedback to give, please do so, it will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
Patrick D’Arcey
