As part of their Cultural Studies research project, a group of UBC Okanagan students prepared a report on the positive impacts of parklets for a city.

A parklet was set up on Whyte Avenue, in the area where Isaak Kornelsen, a 21-year-old University of Alberta student, was killed after falling beneath a moving cement truck in August 2012.

An Edmonton landscape architecture student is hoping to honour the life of a local cyclist, who died two years ago, with a unique temporary memorial.
