Lively Cities project
Brighton & Hove City Council is working to transform the area around Ann Street and Providence Place Gardens (the small park opposite St Bartholomew’s Church) into a lively, safe and successful public space.
The work is part of the EU assisted ‘Lively Cities’ (LICI) project- a four year project aiming to strengthen communities by reclaiming public space for public use.

The video below provides information about the area and priorities for its transformation.
Lively Cities competition
Thanks to everyone who visited the Lively Cities exhibition and voted for their favourite(s) among the five short-listed proposals [PDF 24MB] for a temporary transformation of the Ann Street / Providence Place Gardens area of Brighton.
The selection panel will meet at the end of May to choose a proposal to be tested on site in September 2012.
The results of the public vote will inform the panel’s choice of a winner.
The winner will be posted on this web page in June 2012.
Updates on the project and more information, including time lapse recordings are available on our Lively Cities page on Facebook.
