Explore Station Park, Edmonton’s first shipping container hub, with a tour, talk, and bites—design, placemaking, and bold ideas collide!

Step inside the story of Station Park: Edmonton’s first shipping container park! Discover how bold ideas and innovative design came together to transform an unconventional concept into a community hub.

Join us during Design Week for an exclusive evening featuring a guided tour of the grounds and an insider talk by Ian Evans, Principal at Hodgson, Schilf, Evans and Associates (HSEA). From vision to reality, Ian will share how the team approached the unique challenges of working with shipping containers, the design choices that shaped the space, and what it means for the future of placemaking in Edmonton.
