A Study of Car and House Ownership in the Face of Increasing Commuting Expenses (CHOICE) A Study of Car and House Ownership in the face of Increasing Commuting Expenses (CHOICE) by Elli Maria Papaioannou A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Masters of Applied Science Graduate Department of Civil Engineering University of Toronto © Copyright by Elli Maria Papaioannou, 2014 A Study of Car and House Ownership in the face of Increasing Commuting Expenses (CHOICE) Elli Maria Papaioannou Masters of Applied Science Department of Civil Engineering University of Toronto 2014 Abstract This research presents the design, implementation and results of a survey of Car and House Ownership in the face of Increasing Commuting Expenses (CHOICE). The CHOICE survey is a web-based survey that combines RP and SP components, and was designed to collect information of commuting mode choices, housing and neighbourhood preferences along with vehicle ownership choices of households with cross-regional commuters in the Greater Toronto Area. Investigations of the survey data revealed that for small increases in commuting costs people are willing to change to more efficient cars. As commuting costs reached higher levels, participants chose to relocate their home in order to commute shorter distances. This study provides evidence that vehicle ownership and especially residential location decisions are a complex process and are interrelated. The findings of this study show some of the possible reactions of households in the GTA in the face of extreme increases in transportation costs. ii Acknowledgments This two-year-long journey flew by and I am standing at the end of it today trying to think of all the challenges I faced, all the wonderful and bright people I met, all the things I learned, and all the friends I earned. First, I would like to sincerely thank my supervisor, Khandker Nurul Habib, for his valuable guidance and genuine care. He is an enthusiastic teacher and a great person who treats his students as his children. I want to thank him for his help, advice and kindness. Many thanks to all my other professors for their important input: Amer Shalaby, Lloyd McCoomb, and especially Matthew Roorda for spending the time and energy as a second reviewer of my thesis. Second, I want to thank Dimitris Panagiotakopoulos, the programmer who not only helped in coding the survey, but with his patience and experience also played a definitive role in the outcome of the study. I also want to thank my friends and colleagues within the transportation group at the University of Toronto. Mohamed Salah Mahmoud offered his valuable help and support countless times throughout these two years, and I consider myself lucky for having the opportunity to learn from him. Many thanks go to Adam Weiss for offering his help during the development of the survey. Of course, these two years would not have been the same without my good friends and office- mates: Adam Wenneman and Nico Malfara; you two made my days in that office “brighter”. Finally, I want to thank my family: my mother and my brother for their support and love, and especially my father who throughout my life has not only been a parent but my mentor and my biggest supporter. Many thanks to my “sisters”: Lindsey, Lida and Theofili for their love and countless sessions of skype-laughter. And last but not least, I want to thank my Toronto-people: Lee, Holly, Jane, Kaisa and Aitor who together with the rest of the crew made these two years the most memorable and adventurous journey of my life.

  • Bathurst Manor
    Canadian Jewish Studies / Études juives canadiennes, vol. 31, 2021 181 Donna Bernardo-Ceriz A Jewish Tale of Suburbia: Bathurst Manor 182 Donna Bernado-Ceriz / A Jewish Tale of Suburbia: Bathurst Manor How does one tell the story of a neighbourhood? If examining the changing and de- veloping physical landscape, then records are in no short supply at various govern- ment archives: census records, municipal planning records, maps, assessment roles, directories, building surveys, and aerial photographs, to name only a few. Retelling the experiences of a community of people, however, requires a slightly different re- search strategy. Personal papers, photographs, letters, home movies, and oral histo- ries offer a glimpse into the lives of residents. Organizational records can provide insight into the cultural, religious, and social needs of a community and the services offered. But what if those records do not exist or cannot easily be located? The Ontario Jewish Archives (OJA) receive over 650 research requests each year. If we divide that by the number of working days (ignoring vacations, stat, and Jewish hol- idays), that equals 2.5 inquiries every day. Some of these inquiries are fairly quick and straightforward, and some are long, protracted research endeavours. We also receive over 50,000 unique users to our website each year; researchers whom we never in- teract with and whose research we never hear about. Of these research requests, a sizable number are related to Jewish spaces and shifting landscapes. “I’m researching the history of Kensington Market”; “Do you have any records on The Ward?”; “I’d like to study the small communities in Ontario”; “I’m interested in how Bathurst Street became the spine of Toronto’s Jewish community.” While these questions may appear well defined, it is the archivist’s job to determine what the researcher is actually asking.

  • Planning for Missing Middle Housing in Toronto's Yellowbelt
    Filling in the Housing Gaps: Planning for Missing Middle Housing in Toronto’s Yellowbelt By Aria Popal Supervised by Dr. Luisa Sotomayor A Major Paper submitted to the Faculty of Environmental Studies in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Environmental Studies York University, Toronto, Ontario, Canada July 31st, 2020 i ABSTRACT The City of Toronto is experiencing a well-known housing affordability crisis. As the fastest growing city in North America with the highest construction activity, expensive condominium developments in the City’s designated areas for growth, such as the downtown core, are dominating the housing market as the leading type of supply. On the other hand, Toronto prides itself upon being a city of neighbourhoods, by alluding to the other form of supply in the city as single-family homes or single detached dwellings. To contend with the convolutions of the housing market, a discourse of the Missing Middle emerged in the 2010s as a new angle from which to examine the housing affordability crisis in North American cities. The Missing Middle is a multifaceted term that generally refers to a need for more housing typologies that are in scale with single-family homes but are limited to four units in height; to be added as gentle or medium density to designated single-family neighbourhoods. I assess the Missing Middle as an approach, a strategy, and a discourse to moderate the housing crisis. By conducting interviews with interested city-builders, community members and vocal advocates for the development of Missing Middle housing in Toronto, this paper presents different views and perspectives on the limits and opportunities that such approach may provide.
