Walkshop: Part 2 - Queen Street Mall

Walk along albert streeet and stop on intersection of Albert and Queen:

The Queen Street mall is the highest point of the city, meaning it is the best place for the centre of the city.

The shade structure in the centre of the Queen street mall is a very unique structure. It takes on an aestetically pleasing appearance which allows views out of the site, so one is still able to see above into all of the surrounding buildings. Structurally it is also very functional, allowing minimal impact and disturbnce on pedestrian traffic and also utilises the structure as a feature rather than trying to cover it up.
