@brent_bellamy My hometown. Many challenges linger from the reinvention, but it sure helps to have one of the greatest lakes in the world at your doorstep, too.

Kenora, Ontario. A former mill town that reinvented itself through good urbanism and investment in the public realm.

This look at 1414Bayview.com shows its confident, masterful design by @_archAlliance_ and a glimpse at the lush terraces that bridge with the green canopies of midtown Toronto.

@glynbowerman @michaelpoos Allow development to happen in places other than on beloved commercial streets. What’s happening is a direct outcome of planning policy.

@g_meslin Maybe if all these projects weren’t constrained to only being developed on major streets, the traffic impacts wouldn’t be felt so keenly. Consequences of conscious decisions. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Of course, this was for a site that was previously proposed for like stacked towns or something, a very short walk from a Yonge subway, on a major street. CoA refused and OMB refused, so new owners proposed semis… and still had to appeal.

-Developer proposes to sever a lot into 2 to build semis. -Zoning explicitly permits semis, and lots needed no variances. -City objects saying “doesn’t meet the OP test” for variances. -CoA refuses, developer appeals -TLAB is like “WHY ARE WE HERE? Approved.” Zoning matters

@PlannerSean @GreggLintern Can confirm - have seen a few while on a dog walk at Cherry beach - they were a surprising, and big(!), sight to behold.

35 cruise ships visited Toronto in 2019 double the number in 2018. Take that Miami.

Very pleasantly surprised by the Ottawa train station today. Peak Canadian modernism, and good planning with the new LRT station steps away.
