Deconstructing/Reconstructing Woodward's: A Flip Book

The real life story of the redevelopment of Woodwards cannot be captured in images alone. There is a larger collective meaning this deconstruction embodies for the people who squatted, worked, lobbied, shopped, lived and dreamed over the past 18 years since the closure of the flagship store. This little flipbook celebrates the demolition and construction of this historic site, now housing The Woodwards Experiment which is in its infancy. The book documents six years, from 2004 to 2010, in the evolution of the former abandoned Woodwards Department Store into the Inclusive City, which it is today. This is not a demolition, but instead a resurrection of the economic and social heart of the historic district surrounding the Hastings and Abbott Streets in the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver, Canada.
