If you're already a 2026 Evergreen Conference ticketholder, register to attend this session along with all other sessions on PheedLoop.



Panel Description:

It might seem frivolous to talk about public spaces in the context of a housing crisis. But public spaces are what make dense housing work. They make the units we need into homes and communities where people and nature can flourish--places of community connection, health and recreation, climate resilience, and vibrant local economies. Public spaces aren't peripheral to housing delivery; they are essential housing-enabling infrastructure. And they are a powerful force multiplier, building trust and social license, and bringing us together in common purpose to enable better, faster, solutions. Housing is where we live. Public space is where we live together.



The reception and panel discussion will be in CRH Gallery (TD Future Cities Centre).
