Over 50 years of change: From a 1952 suburban theatre to the 1988 vision for a new Etobicoke City Centre to the 2024 construction start on a new community and civic heart for thousands of current & future residents and businesses in “downtown” Etobicoke anchored by transit 👏👏

Jeez and I thought it was just because a columnist gave a couple of city planners some credit 🤷♂️
Cities connect people - and offices are among the places where that happens. Toronto’s downtown occupancy continues its steady recovery per SRRA Research
For clarity, multiplex housing containing up to 4 units (+1 garden / laneway suite), within prescribed height limits (which mostly permit 3 storeys but in places 4), form based (not limited by FSI), with no min parking requirement has been permitted in Toronto since May 2023

Bloor-Gladstone @torontolibrary — one of the best.
Tunneling on the Eglinton Crosstown West Extension is one big step closer to being finished! 🚊 Rexy, one of our twin tunnel boring machines, has broken through at the extraction shaft. The extension will bring 37,000+ more people within walking distance of rapid transit.
#cdnpoli As always, twisting the facts. City planning ("gatekeepers") didn't object to this infill project; it was blocked by the Committee of Adjustment and neighbourhood opposition.
The Liberals sent $471 Million to Toronto gatekeepers - and they still block housing. Paying for promises is not going to work. Conservatives will get more homes built by rewarding real results. #cdnpoli
Well, that's a personal first. Just walked from the airport to a major downtown in 15 minutes.
The only home we have! #EarthDay
Two extremely cool new missing middle projects about to break ground — together they should be a template for how to get the zoning code right in Sacramento in the post-exclusionary era [Thread]

It takes more than 11 months to complete a brand new home. In reality, what @fordnation neglected to mention is that monthly permit applications for multiplexes TRIPLED within five months of legalizing them as-of-right. Per @GreggLintern:
Today we broke ground on the new Etobicoke Civic Centre! Once complete, the new ECC will be a state-of-the-art community hub in Etobicoke with municipal offices, a child care centre, a new library branch, a public health clinic, a recreation centre, an art gallery, + more.
Earlier today, @PaulCalandra introduced a new housing bill. I'm pleased it will bring many of the common-sense changes already implemented in Toronto, across the province. For example, we removed parking minimums in 2021 and changed zoning so multiplexes can actually be built.
Ground-breaking event today for the new Etobicoke Civic Centre. Details on the project can be found here: toronto.ca/services-payme…
Been reading through the Cutting Red Tape to Build More Homes Act, 2024 summaries for a few hours. OK time for a thread. I give it an overall YIMBY Score of 3.5/5. Some good stuff, some bad stuff, some we shall see stuff. As always, thank you sources.
The @cityoftoronto’s new Etobicoke Civic Centre, which broke ground today, will be a dynamic civic hub and the foundation for the creation of a complete community on the City-owned lands at Bloor-Kipling. Here’s a look at a few renderings.

This is a recently constructed 4-unit building in Ottawa. Some might call it a 4-plex, I call it a back-to-back duplex (long-semi) with with 2 basement suites. Rear facade is same as front, all units independently accessible. Thoughts?
BQNP Update #83: Another milestone this week as the completed exterior rehab work at the malting silos, including a faithful restoration of their iconic signage, is now fully visible. Next up: the silos become a canvas for ambient lighting, and film & public art projections.
