Matti Siemiatycki the director of U of T's School of Cities is embarking on a City-building project here, and perhaps elsewhere in the future.

I learned about it here:


But there is also a Globe and Mail column I somehow missed, here: https://www.theglobeandmail.com/rea...-a-toronto-approach-to-mixed-use-development/ (behind the paywall)

One hopes the architecture will be rather more pleasing by the time this gets to a serious proposal, but its good to see this type of discussion happening.

To place the context here, this is the fire station just east of Sherbourne, on the north side of Bloor, opposite the Rosedale valley as reflected by the trees in the image above.

This is the site as it appears today:
