1.6 Five Campaigns for a Great City<br />
The urban design approach for bringing the Vision<br />
Statement to fruition is organized around five key<br />
“Campaigns for a Great City”:<br />
1. A Sustainable City<br />
2. A City of Livable & Complete<br />
<strong>Neighbourhood</strong>s<br />
3. A Distinct & Unique City<br />
4. A City of Vibrant & Exciting Places<br />
5. A Beautiful City<br />
These Campaigns serve as the broad yet tangible<br />
objectives for shaping future growth in a manner and<br />
character that is desired for the Region Centre. These<br />
Campaigns are themes that emerge in the Guiding<br />
Principles and take form in the Downtown <strong>Halifax</strong><br />
Plan and the <strong>Neighbourhood</strong> <strong>Greenprint</strong>.<br />
As the historic, cultural and economic heart of the<br />
<strong>Halifax</strong> <strong>Regional</strong> <strong>Municipality</strong>, the urban quality<br />
and character of the <strong>Regional</strong> Centre touches the<br />
lives of most residents and makes the greatest lasting<br />
impression on the image of this city to visitors.<br />
Hence, in many ways, these Campaigns are not just<br />
about the <strong>Regional</strong> Centre, they are also relevant<br />
and meaningful to the entire urban area and the<br />
communities that comprise the <strong>Halifax</strong> <strong>Regional</strong><br />
<strong>Municipality</strong> – a potential next Great City.<br />
