The essence of Toronto lies not within the bustling city streets but rather in the quiet, forgotten corners of neighbourhood laneways. Join us in exploring these hidden treasures and share your favourite laneway using #lovethelaneways

I am thrilled to be giving a presentation on multiplexes at this year's Missing Middle Summit. It is going to be an exciting event! I look forward to seeing you there.

'Some participants' i.e. Blair Scorgie.

For all who are interested in mixed-use laneways, see Planning and Housing Committee Agenda Item 12.4 and, in particular, the screen captures I have provided below. This is a good starting point, with room for improvement. More to come. #TOpoli secure.toronto.ca/council/report…

I will be fashionably late to tonight's Jane's Walk Launch Party at 401 Richmond, but look forward to seeing many of you there!

Designing from the inside out, and for life without cars, would yield a very different block pattern.

Why is the City of Toronto so hell bent on capping the number of units in mid-rise buildings on Major Streets? What does this accomplish, and how does it help achieve study- based and broader city building objectives? #TOpoli

Missing Middle May is here in the beautiful city of Toronto.

Two of my students had the opportunity to present their group's final studio recommendations at Scarborough Civic Centre this afternoon to an audience that included Councillor Jamaal Myers and his staff, City Planning staff, and the leadership of Grace Reform Church. #TOpoli
