The global pandemic has unveiled and accelerated trends that will have a lasting impact on the built environment and architecture of Belfast.
With effective vaccines now being delivered, the time will soon come when the city must consider the shape of post-pandemic regeneration.
Architecturally, regeneration is re-design closely linked to reflecting a sense of place - defining exactly what that means for Belfast is crucial.
The Belfast Agenda, supported by Belfast City Centre Regeneration and Investment Strategy, sets a target of an additional 66,000 residents and 30,000 homes to help create a vibrant, functioning city centre.
