Figure 2.12 Concept plan for the Plateau Subdivision in Iqaluit, Nunavut. The plan incorporates development practices to build a more sustainable neighbourhood while also considering community needs and values, available resources, and climate. For example, the subdivision includes a variety of lot sizes, including smaller, more affordable lots; road and lot orientations that minimize snow drift and maximize solar exposure, as well as views of Frobisher Bay; and a mixture of land uses that support the community’s cultural and socio-economic diversity.
