Coriolis is working with the Vancouver Economic Commission to help plan the future of the False Creek Flats area.  This largely industrial area is home to the new Emily Carr University of Art and Design and the proposed replacement for St. Paul’s Hospital, as well as the location of a wide range of technology, food, transportation, and other companies.  The purpose of the project is to explore the potential for the area to become a more diverse, dense, and sustainable employment precinct while continuing to accommodate rail, warehouse, and other industrial uses.
