The City of Markham is developing new Age-Friendly Design Guidelines and we want to hear from you as we help make Markham a great place for everyone - from 0-99!
The Markham Age-Friendly Design Guidelines will provide design direction for new and redeveloping communities, focusing on three scales: the unit, the building and the neighbourhood.
We want to know how you live, work and play in Markham – whether you are a local teen, a young family new to the community or an older adult looking to age-in-place. Tell us how we can make homes, buildings and neighbourhoods safer, more social and more accessible for everyone, regardless of their age or ability.
