  • Daniels Is Changing the Waterfront Forever
    DANIELS IS CHANGING THE WATERFRONT FOREVER The Daniels Corporation has been at the cutting edge of city building for over three decades, with such award-winning, master-planned communities as the Regent Park Revitalization in Toronto’s Downtown East, TIFF Bell Lightbox, Festival Tower and Cinema Tower in the Entertainment District, NY Towers in Toronto, and Mississauga’s City Centre and Daniels Erin Mills. When the opportunity to create a visionary, new community at the water came along, the pioneering spirit of our founder - John H. Daniels - inspired us to think on a grand, urban scale: a gateway to the burgeoning East Bayfront, a starting point to the best of downtown Toronto, a crossroads connecting city to the water and past to the future. WELCOME TO DANIELS WATERFRONT - CITY OF THE ARTS A live-work-play-learn-create community that will change Toronto’s waterfront forever, with an outstanding collection of residential, office, retail and cultural components that will bring new life and vibrancy to this iconic, waterfront location. Inspired by creativity and energized by the dynamism of its location, Daniels Waterfront - City of the Arts will be home to Toronto’s newest hub of creative, digital media, arts and innovation industries. With the allure of dozens of nearby parks, picturesque trails, trendy shops and cultural venues, coupled with downtown’s most visited hotspots, Daniels Waterfront - City of the Arts will undoubtedly be a desirable destination for residents, workers, and retailers of distinction. Illustration is artist’s concept. E. & O.E.

    WELCOME TO TORONTO YWCA Canada AMM — Toronto 2020 We acknowledge that the land on which we gather is the traditional territory of the Huron-Wendat and Petun First Nations, the Seneca, and most recently, the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation. The territory was the subject of the Dish With One Spoon Wampum Belt Covenant, an agreement between the Iroquois Confederacy and the Ojibwe and allied nations to share peacefully and care for the resources around the Great Lakes. Today, the meeting place of Toronto is still the home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island and we are grateful to have the opportunity to work in the community, on this territory. ABOUT TORONTO Toronto is the provincial capital of Ontario and the most populous city in Canada, with a population of 2,731,571 as of 2016. Toronto is an international centre of business, finance, arts, and culture, and is recognized as one of the most multicultural and cosmopolitan cities in the world. This major city resides along Lake Ontario’s northwestern shore. It is a dynamic metropolis with a core of soaring skyscrapers, all dwarfed by the iconic, free-standing CN Tower. Toronto also has many green spaces, from the orderly oval of Queen’s Park to 400-acre High Park and its trails, sports facilities and zoo. The diverse population of Toronto reflects its current and historical role as an important destination for immigrants to Canada.

  • Piers Handling, CEO, Toronto International Film Festival, to The
    TIFF Piers Handling Speech to the Empire Club FINAL – CHECK AGAINST DELIVERY 2/21/2013 3:58 PM [INTRO] Over the past 37 years, the Toronto Film Festival has screened thousands of movies, from scores of countries, for millions of people. Every single one of these films featured a trailer - a sneak preview of what was in that film. Today, I want to offer you our trailer - a sneak preview of coming attractions at tiff. Indeed, our beginnings were right out of a movie. Back in 1976, we were so small and shaky that Year One was financed by the founders’ credit cards. And - in the early days, our bank loans were secured by the personal guarantees of our board members. Thank you Martin Connell, our first Chair; we are all in your debt! Now, fast forward to today. TIFF is not only the largest public film festival in the world; it’s one of the most important and respected film institutions anywhere. We employ 170 full-time staff and have 2,200 volunteers. We partner with all levels of government, with hundreds of corporations and foundations, and legions of individual supporters. Through the course of the year, we screen literally thousands of films - from Hollywood galas - to Canadian premieres - to international spotlights on regions like Asia, South America and the Middle East. Our annual budget - which was about a quarter of a million dollars in year one - is $40 million today. TIFF’s economic impact on the city is even bigger - some $170 million dollars a year and growing.

    STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED Demolition of Four Designated Heritage Properties – 266, 276, 284 and 322 King Street West Date: October 22, 2013 Toronto Preservation Board To: Toronto and East York Community Council From: Acting Director, Urban Design, City Planning Division Wards: Ward 20, Trinity-Spadina Reference P:\2013\Cluster B\PLN\HPS\TEYCC\November 19 2013\teHPS40 Number: SUMMARY This report recommends that City Council refuse the proposed demolition of four designated heritage properties at 266, 276, 284 and 322 King Street West as part of Zoning By-law amendment application12-276890 STE 20 OZ. The development application, which has been appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board for non-decision within required timeframes, proposes to redevelop two separate parcels, municipally known as 266- 270 King Street West (east parcel) and 274-322 King Street West (west parcel) for the purpose of a mixed use development on each. A report from the Director, Community Planning will be considered at the November 19, 2013 meeting of Toronto and East York Community Council. The East Parcel would be developed with an 82-storey mixed use building complete with a six storey base. The West Parcel would be developed with two tower elements having total heights of 84 and 86 storeys from John Street to Ed Mirvish Way respectively, including a six-storey base. The proposed demolition of four designated buildings does not satisfy the requirements of the Planning Act, the associated Provincial Policy Statement and the City's Official Plan Heritage Policies. It also does not comply with the Standards and Guidelines for the Conservation of Historic Place in Canada, which was adopted by City Council.
