A Collective Futures Experiment
Calgary, imagine what could be.
What forces will shape Calgary’s next chapter? And what if one of the city’s most recognizable places became a starting point for imagining its future?
As co-presenter of the Calgary Futures Forum, we’re collaborating with global design firm Stantec to bring a Collective Futures Experiment to life. We’re inviting Calgarians to share their ideas for what the Calgary Tower could become.
For nearly 60 years, the Calgary Tower has reflected the city’s growth, ambitions, and evolving priorities. From a symbol of urban development to a destination for culture, tourism, and community gathering, its story mirrors Calgary’s own.
This is an invitation to imagine, not a proposal for redevelopment. Let’s explore how new possibilities can spark conversations about the future of our city.
