Join us for an event that will inspire the community and stimulate dialogue about the future growth and development of the city.

Roanoke Urban Effect is an International design competition that sprang from the hope and vision of a group of young design professionals who knew their city could be greater than the sum of its parts. The competition challenges design professionals and students to look beyond the traditional urban planning model to present innovative and inspired ideas that encourage a more vibrant, dynamic and sustainable urban environment in the City of Roanoke.
