What is Hamilton to you? What does it need? Here's what some residents had to say

How would you finish the sentence "Hamilton is ...?"

What about the sentence "Hamilton needs ...?"

We recently gave Hamiltonians a chance to offer their opinions on the city's evolving identity by answering one of those two questions.

Over the course of two days at Supercrawl, hundreds of people took the opportunity to fill in the blanks on those two question prompts, writing in the answers on our white board and posing for a portrait.

It was a chance for our readers to have a say in our series exploring the city's identity crisis, and what this junction looks like for workers, residents, commuters, newcomers and lifers who call Hamilton home.

• Inside Hamilton's identity crisis: Who are we and what do we want to become?

• The views from outside: What other places are saying about Hamilton

• An architect and artist tries to be true to both callings in a changing city

We'll learn about changing neighbourhoods, study juxtapositions of old and new and how work and job security have changed.

Here's a sampling a some of the answers we got. You can see the full gallery on our facebook page.
