UBC Faculty of Pharmaceutical Sciences
The site consists of a 20 240 square metre parcel of land that is located at an important university entry point.

Harvest Green Vancouver
Harvest Green Project explores the notion of the ‘foregrounding’ of a new agri-food system in and around the strategic urban location of an arterial transit hub. To a certain extent, we have seen 20th century town planning disregard the importance of food and farming, and urban development has virtually eliminated agriculture in our cities.
