PFS Studio are the landscape architects on a team led by Urban Strategies to develop a policy document for the Jericho Lands, a 90-acre post-military site co-owned and developed in a joint venture partnership between the Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh (MST) Partnership, and the Canada Lands Company (CLC). Developed closely with cultural liaisons from Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh Nations, the plans emphasize the existing ridge, forest, and water drainage as a framework to develop a mixed use, high density, multimodal community centred on several new parks and a cultural heart. Vehicular movement is minimized in favour of bicycles and pedestrians, and a hierarchy of public spaces are integrated into the fabric of the site, celebrating the dramatic grade changes and views of the mountains, ocean, downtown Vancouver, and Jericho Beach Park.
