Throwback to a brilliant moment when I had the opportunity to witness Melbourne’s urban vibrancy, one of the world’s most liveable cities. City of Melbourne's journey towards liveability is built on its dedication to quality urban design, activating public spaces like laneway movements to transport networks. These efforts have created an environment that not only serves today’s residents but also ensures future generations have something to look forward to. In many respects, Singapore shares a similar vision. From our well-designed built environments to our efficient transport systems, both cities are committed to creating spaces that enhance quality of life. Much like Melbourne, Singapore’s forward-thinking urban planning ensures our city remains resilient, sustainable, and liveable for the future. If your city has demonstrated a commitment to improving urban spaces, fostering liveability, and delivering innovative design solutions, consider nominating it for the LKY World City Prize. It’s an opportunity to share best practices, showcase your city’s achievements, and inspire others globally. #UrbanDesign #CityPlanning #LiveableCities #Singapore #Melbourne #LKYWorldCityPrize #SustainableCities
Whether it is activating their popular laneways, or prioritising the creation of more well-designed buildings and environments and improving their transport networks, City of Melbourne’s continuous improvements to enhance the quality of their environments have made them one of the most #LiveableCities in the world. Hear from Sally Capp AO, former Lord Mayor of Melbourne (2024 Special Mention) on the impact of some of their initiatives, with the belief that investing in good design matters in creating “a significant impact today and for generations to come.” #LKYWCP #UrbanDesign #UrbanPlanning #Architecture
