Belmont Village: This City Has Curves

May 7th, 2009, by Jeremy Krygsman

Belmont Village Urban Design

Belmont Village: The Movie may not be coming to theatres near you soon, but it is a story that will touch your heart (if you like city planning, that is). It is a story about the agonizing decline of a well-known commercial strip near downtown Kitchener, now transformed into a glittering urban district. Experience the soaring, eco-industrial space of the Atrium, and the unique shapes of the Convex and Concave parks… you can see it all here in the A Digital City presentation of Belmont Village: This City has Curves.

This work was completed as part of the Plan, Design, and the Environment class at the University of Waterloo. The purpose was to take a declining commercial strip in Kitchener and redesign it into a vibrant, modern destination for live, work, and play. The area is designed to be dense, sustainable, and walkable, and human scale; it gives priority to people, not the car. I (Jeremy Krygsman) did the 3D modeling (including video creation) in 3ds Max. Additionally, I put together the display panels as in Photoshop with the help of Joyce Chong and the input of the rest of the TwoTen6 group.
