Kingsway

Overview

Kingsway’s design dates to the golden age of the automobile when the route was once the only highway into Vancouver, but now its monumental scale contrasts with the human scale of family neighbourhoods and storefronts. The film portrays the interaction between the past and the present, layering images and sounds, creating a collaged experience of Kingsway. Architectural signs and symbols overpower the foreground evoking the automotive scale, but present-day buildings and spaces re ect a changing vernacular as portrayed by the street’s soundscape and the road’s new sense of place.
