History
Walter Gordon Hardwick was born in 1932, and beginning in 1950, attended UBC, the University of Wisconsin, and the University of Minnesota. He first joined UBC's Department of Geography in 1960. Until his retirement in 1997, he taught courses in urban studies, urban geography, and political geography. He also headed the "Vancouver Urban Futures" survey project from 1971 to 1974. A second related project was called "Choosing Our Future" in the late 1980s; these projects served as a basis for urban planning in the Greater Vancouver Regional District and inspired the district's "Livable Region" strategy.
