Space to grow - Toronto has plenty of it
Is Toronto maxed-out? Decidedly not, says architect and urban planner Naama Blonder. The city has space for 7.6-million new homes, which could house 12-million more residents, according to a new study by her firm.
The study was a theoretical exercise by Ms. Blonder, co-founder of Smart Density, a firm that combines architecture, urban planning and urban design in search of realistic ways to grow cities and provide affordable housing.
