The River District Discovery Centre

The River District Discovery Centre was designed to be disassembled and moved to other sites

How do you create a dynamic and exciting community?

The East Fraser Lands in Vancouver has officially become the River District.

With a 20-year building plan just getting underway, interest is very high and soon-to-be residents are lining up to be the first among its community members.

There is a unique challenge to rebrand industrial land, engage the existing community and keep interest growing over a 20-year development.

TAAC members came to hear about the challenges faced and solutions created from the team behind the River District Vision Centre.

The interactive projection model was very unique
