  • Wychwood Park Wychwood Park Sits on a Height of Land That Was Once the Lake Iroquois Shore
    Wychwood Park Wychwood Park sits on a height of land that was once the Lake Iroquois shore. The source for Taddle Creek lies to the north and provides the water for the pond found in the centre of the Park. Today, Taddle Creek continues under Davenport Road at the base of the escarpment and flows like an underground snake towards the Gooderham and Worts site and into Lake Ontario. Access to this little known natural area of Toronto is by two entrances one at the south, where a gate prevents though traffic, and the other entrance at the north end, off Tyrell Avenue, which provides the regular vehicular entrance and exit. A pedestrian entrance is found between 77 and 81 Alcina Avenue. Wychwood Park was founded by Marmaduke Matthews and Alexander Jardine in the third quarter of the 19th century. In 1874, Matthews, a land- scape painter, built the first house in the Park (6 Wychwood Park) which he named “Wychwood,” after Wychwood Forest near his home in England. The second home in Wychwood Park, “Braemore,” was built by Jardine a few years later (No. 22). When the Park was formally established in 1891, the deed provided building standards and restrictions on use. For instance, no commercial activities were permitted, there were to be no row houses, and houses must cost not less than $3,000. By 1905, other artists were moving to the Park. Among the early occupants were the artist George A. Reid (Uplands Cottage at No. 81) and the architect Eden Smith (No. 5). Smith designed both 5 and 81, as well as a number of others, all in variations of the Arts and Crafts style promoted by C.F.A.

  • Toronto Tunnels Plan
    TORONTO TUNNELS PLAN 1 Toronto Tunnels Plan After reviewing traffic counts and traffic patterns throughout the City of Toronto using the latest traffic counts from the City’s transportation department, it clearly shows that the west end of the city has higher traffic levels and is prone to gridlock more than the east end. For example, traffic volumes on Highway 401 at Keele Street reach a peak of approximately 400,000 vehicles per day while volumes on Highway 401 in Scarborough is approximately 200,000 vehicles per day. Similarly, traffic volumes on the Gardiner Expressway at Dunn Avenue is approximately 200,000 vehicles per day while volume at Cherry Street at the expressway’s east end is approximately 85,000 vehicles per day. Also, there is a lack of a continuous north-south expressway between Highway 401 and the Gardiner Expressway between Highway 427 and the Don Valley Parkway, which is a width of nearly 20 kilometres. The only exception is the incomplete Allen Expressway which terminates at Eglinton Avenue. This area is served by a 2 network of local streets which are very narrow and often congested. Similarly, Highway 400 turns into Black Creek Drive south of Highway 401, which is a heavily congested arterial road which connects into very narrow local streets south of Eglinton Avenue. The area bounded by Highway 401 in the north, Highway 427 in the west, the Don Valley Parkway in the east and the Gardiner Expressway in the south is entirely made up of narrow four-lane local streets which are heavily congested and serving local businesses.

  • Graffiti Management Plan – Streetartoronto (Start) Partnership Programs 2015 Grant Allocation Recommendations
    STAFF REPORT ACTION REQUIRED Graffiti Management Plan – StreetARToronto (StART) Partnership Programs 2015 Grant Allocation Recommendations Date: March 24, 2015 To: Licensing and Standards Committee From: General Manager, Transportation Services Wards: All Reference p:\2015\ClusterB\tra\pr\ls15002pr Number: SUMMARY StreetARToronto (StART) is a partnership program launched in 2012 as a central feature of the City's Graffiti Management Plan. It is a proactive approach to both eliminating graffiti vandalism and supporting street art that adds character and visual interest to city streets. Initiated as part of the Community Partnership and Investment Program (CPIP), StART is administered by the Transportation Services, Public Realm Section, which is also responsible for coordinating and implementing all non-enforcement related components of the Graffiti Management Plan. StART engages and links residents, community groups, artists and arts organizations with each other as well as with City staff and Councillors. To expand the geographical reach of street art projects across the city, Public Realm staff conducted a broad outreach program including Information Session in all four districts. At the Information Sessions and in response to enquiries, StART staff encouraged potential applicants to develop projects for locations in wards where StART murals have not yet been installed. These priorities were also shown on the City's website. This report recommends funding for 19 mural projects to be delivered by community- based organizations under the 2015 StART Partnership Program including installations in five wards which currently do not have a StART Partnership mural. Staff are confident that mural installations will be recommended for all 44 wards within the city by 2016.

  • Transportation-Led Redevelopment and Affordability Along the Eglinton Avenue LRT Line, Toronto
    Transportation-Led Redevelopment and Affordability along the Eglinton Avenue LRT Line, Toronto. 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 November 19 2015 ____________________________ _________________________ Joshua Switzman Dr. Liette Gilbert MES Candidate Supervisor ABSTRACT New rapid transit lines have been demonstrated to increase access and enhance equity and social inclusivity in cities. However fixed transit infrastructure improvements have also been shown to lift property values, decrease affordability, and lead to displacement and community homogenization in areas adjacent to its construction. The following case study examines this often overlooked relationship between enhanced mobility and reduced affordability in the context of Ontario’s largest single infrastructure project, the Eglinton Crosstown Light Rail Transit (LRT). The case study first looks at the history of rapid transit infrastructure in Toronto and the role of provincial transit agency Metrolinx and their stated goals in the development of new transit. The case study area, a 2.1km stretch of Eglinton Avenue West is subsequently examined, detailing the neighbourhood’s history, demographic makeup and existing affordability conditions. The implications of new transit development in the study area to date and in the future are considered. Parties likely to gain the most from the Crosstown LRT such as the development and real estate firms are discussed in context to those most at risk of losing out, tenanted business and residents. Reggae Lane, a local project in the case study area conceived in recognition of the changes to come, is discussed by way of interviews with the local councillor who proposed the project as well as the founder of Canadian Reggae World and active participant in the project.

It outlines the Division's 58 completions and approvals in 2020, highlighting a remarkable variety of city building work. The report also provides a forecast for the Division's 2021 Study Work Program. Although this past year has not been business as usual given COVID-19 impacts, the collaborative effort with divisions across the Toronto Public Service, external agencies and community partners enabled City Planning to advance studies and initiatives in support of the City's 2019 Corporate Strategic Plan and its four Strategic Priorities on affordable housing, mobility, quality of life, and climate change and resiliency. These include affordable housing policy and programs, such as inclusionary zoning and Housing Now; new planning frameworks to guide longer term investment and growth, for example, the Golden Mile and Keele Finch Plus secondary plans; zoning initiatives including expanding permissions for outdoor patios to support bars and restaurants as part of Toronto's recovery efforts; environmental initiatives such as the Ravine Implementation Strategy; and guidelines, including the Retail Design Manual, to influence better design and development outcomes across the city.
