Shaughnessyland : an archive of an archive Mitchell, John

Abstract

shaughnessy was once vancouvers most exclusive neighbourhood. however, in the last 100 years, shaughnessy changed. this archive examines how small and unassumimg projects can attempt to change a neighbourhood for the better. by focsing on small manageable changes, shaghnessy has managed to create a compelling urban strategy that eclipses the large masterplanned moves that have largely failed around vancouver. using the archive as a tool for investigation, shaughnessyland focuses on examining the histories of the interventions, and through that finding out about the people and place of shaughnessy.
