The Sudbury 2050 — Urban Design Competition has announced the finalists.
Led by the McEwen School of Architecture (MSoA) in collaboration with the community, the competition challenged entrants to create a new vision for the urban core of the City of Greater Sudbury.
Entrants were invited to select one or more programs including a new library, art gallery, conference centre, and performance centre, new housing typologies for a range of incomes, reimagining the space occupied by the railway lines, and a new arena and event centre.
The competition includes $63,000 in prizes, with awards for the best professional entry, best student entry, and a People’s Choice award.
