Projexity

Projexity is an online crowdsourcing platform that focuses primarily on urban improvement projects.

The platform enables individuals and organizations to gather all the necessary resources - including designs, ideas, funding and expertise - to bring urban improvement projects to fruition.[1] The platform was created by architect Nicolas Koff, landscape architect Marisa Bernstein and computer programmer Jonathan Koff as a means to bring more public engagement and transparency to the often exclusive city building process.[2] Projexity has so far helped enable projects in both Canada and the United States, ranging from public patios[3] and information kiosks[4] to rooftop agriculture.[5]
