Our city is growing and changing. Part of that growth includes infill housing. When homes in mature neighbourhoods start to get run down or have not been maintained at all, sometimes it's best to just put up something new and vibrant in their place. This helps to keep our mature communities thriving and brings new life to these beautiful neighbourhoods!
The City of Edmonton has started it's "Everyone's Edmonton" campaign. This campaign is designed to give information regarding infill housing and to promote best construction practices where infill is involved. Point of View Media is proud to have been chosen by The City Of Edmonton to produce a series of videos to help with this campaign. Actually, it's technically two separate video series!
The first series focuses on "Infill Stories". These are stories of people living in, building, or living near infill houses in mature communities. This series consists of 6 videos in total and was a lot of fun to produce.
Here is a brief run down of the videos in the "Infill Stories" series, taken from The City of Edmonton infill website (video links are below):
