Lesson learned: Let no submission go without your final review. of mistakes made in the course From Real Eguchi, OALA: of work, so we could all benefit Setting fees for the design of landscapes has been a long “learning” from the painful lessons. Many process. Not specifying the maximum number of meetings in all phases of work were huge omissions that I quickly learned from. thanks to those who fearlessly Not excluding, or including, the many sub-consultants we are contributed responsible for was not quite so easily learned. Since all projects are different in their scope, the variety of subs needed seems to require a bit of forethought that I initially lacked. Then there are all the different municipalities and their varying requirements depending on the types of project and the phases of work. And as we all eventually learn, carefully documenting deliverables and reimburseables also seems crucial to survival. When I feel completely bewildered about setting a fee for a project, I often call a dear OALA colleague with much more experience. He often says, “it’s kind of a crapshoot.” I’m not sure if that means we both don’t know, or if we’re both chronic gamblers. From Vivien Lee, OALA: Early in my landscape architecture career I was given the respon- sibility of preparing a set of panels for a very important presentation to the client, the agencies, and local residents. The client’s name was on the bottom right corner in small letters on the boards. I had mis- takenly spelled the client’s name incorrectly, and no one caught the spelling error. I’ve learned to review everything with a fine-toothed comb and to always read what you type at least twice no matter how much of a rush you are in. Also early in my career, I had the opportunity to design a metal shade structure at the entrance seating area of a prestigious hospital in Ontario. During construction, the contractor requested specification for the paint colour of the structure. I recommended something I thought would be appropriate for the metal structure, cleared it with the principals of the firm and the architect. However, it did not occur to me that I should also confirm the colour with the client. During the painting process, the client notified us that they wanted something that would relate to the colour of their brand. This was a costly mis- take for the firm.

These laboratories conduct analyses in cases involving injury or death under unusual circumstances as well as crimes against persons or property. Law enforcement agencies, crown attorneys, defence counsel, coroners, pathologists and other official investigative agencies use the services of these government laboratories. When forensic expertise is sought by private individuals, corporations, and insurance companies, however, they must usually turn to forensic specialists working in the private sector.

    What’s Out There? Toronto - 1 - What’s Out There - Toronto The Guide The Purpose “Cultural Landscapes provide a sense of place and identity; they map our relationship with the land over time; and they are part of our national heritage and each of our lives” (TCLF). These landscapes are important to a city because they reveal the influence that humans have had on the natural environment in addition to how they continue to interact with these land- scapes. It is significant to learn about and understand the cultural landscapes of a city because they are part of the city’s history. The purpose of this What’s Out There Guide-Toronto is to identify and raise public awareness of significant landscapes within the City of Toron- to. This guide sets out the details of a variety of cultural landscapes that are located within the City and offers readers with key information pertaining to landscape types, styles, designers, and the history of landscape, including how it has changed overtime. It will also provide basic information about the different landscape, the location of the sites within the City, colourful pic- tures and maps so that readers can gain a solid understanding of the area. In addition to educating readers about the cultural landscapes that have helped shape the City of Toronto, this guide will encourage residents and visitors of the City to travel to and experience these unique locations. The What’s Out There guide for Toronto also serves as a reminder of the im- portance of the protection, enhancement and conservation of these cultural landscapes so that we can preserve the City’s rich history and diversity and enjoy these landscapes for decades to come.
