    Cycling infrastructure (Separated bike lanes)

    Agreed on the parking - no need here But even with it, I'm wondering if there's a specific design guideline that prevented adding a physical barrier here? or was this a political decision? For example, Wellington is approx the same width (from Niagara to Strachan) and it has nice separated...

    We wrote a short piece and created some maps showing where Laneway housing (and similar 'gentle density' housing) has been built in Toronto over the past few years. Check it out here: https://schoolofcities.github.io/gentle-density/toronto-building-permits
