  • REPORT for ACTION City Planning Division – Study Work Program
    PH12.3 REPORT FOR ACTION City Planning Division – Study Work Program Date: January 2, 2020 To: Planning and Housing Committee From: Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning Wards: All Folder Number: 19 120442 STE 10 TM SUMMARY This report provides the City Planning Division's annual update on its Study Work Program. The report outlines the Division's 62 completions and approvals in 2019. These completions demonstrate the Division's commitment to advancing the Strategic Priorities identified in the City of Toronto Corporate Strategic Plan, 2019, through a proactive approach to prioritizing and managing a range of complex planning issues, including deliverables related to: Maintaining and creating housing that's affordable: In partnership with the Housing Secretariat and CreateTO, in 2019 City Planning advanced the Housing Now initiative to create affordable housing and mixed-use, mixed-income, transit-oriented communities on City-owned sites. City Planning also advanced policies related to Inclusionary Zoning and dwelling rooms, and zoning related to second suites and municipal shelters for Council approval. Keeping Toronto moving: Following the Province's introduction of Bill 107 - Getting Ontario Moving Act, City Planning has and will continue to play an important role in the articulation and advancement of city-building objectives related to provincial priority transit projects. City Planning also advanced Transportation Master Plans in support of large studies including the Golden Mile Secondary Plan and an evaluation of the King Street Transit Pilot. Investing in people and neighbourhoods: City Planning supports the development of complete communities through large-scale city building and infrastructure studies. Council's adoption of the Don Mills Crossing, Laird in Focus and Sherway Area Secondary Plans establishes local planning frameworks to guide ongoing investment in employment opportunities and community services and facilities to support existing and future residents in these areas.

  • Redeveloping the Distillery District, Toronto
    Place Differentiation: Redeveloping the Distillery District, Toronto by Vanessa Kirsty Mathews A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Department of Geography University of Toronto © Copyright by Vanessa Kirsty Mathews 2010 Place Differentiation: Redeveloping the Distillery District, Toronto Doctor of Philosophy Vanessa Kirsty Mathews, 2010 Department of Geography University of Toronto Abstract What role does place differentiation play in contemporary urban redevelopment processes, and how is it constructed, practiced, and governed? Under heightened forms of interurban competition fueled by processes of globalization, there is a desire by place- makers to construct and market a unique sense of place. While there is consensus that place promotion plays a role in reconstructing landscapes, how place differentiation operates – and can be operationalized – in processes of urban redevelopment is under- theorized in the literature. In this thesis, I produce a typology of four strategies of differentiation – negation, coherence, residue, multiplicity – which reside within capital transformations and which require activation by a set of social actors. I situate these ideas via an examination of the redevelopment of the Gooderham and Worts distillery, renamed the Distillery District, which opened to the public in 2003. Under the direction of the private sector, the site was transformed from a space of alcohol production to a space of cultural consumption. The developers used a two pronged approach for the site‟s redevelopment: historic preservation and arts-led regeneration. Using a mixed method approach including textual analysis, in-depth interviews, visual analysis, and site observation, I examine the strategies used to market the Distillery as a distinct place, and the effects of this marketing strategy on the valuation of art, history, and space.

One need only amble through the gates on Fisgard Street in Victoria or in Gastown in Vancouver to encounter vibrant Chinatowns, or through small roadways just off Dundas Street in Toronto to happen upon enclaves of Portuguese from the Azores; if you wander through the Côte- des-Neiges district in Montreal you will discover a polyethnic world - Kazakhis, Russian Jews, Vietnamese, Sri Lankans or Haitians among many other groups - while parts ot Dartmouth are home to an old African-Canadian community.

August 17, 2006 City of Toronto Heritage Preservation Services 100 Queen Street West, 2nd Floor Toronto, Ontario M5H 2N2 Dear Brian Gallaugher: This study was undertaken for the Toronto Island Community Association with funding assistance provided by the City of Toronto Parks, Forestry and Recreation Division. It builds on the ideas and policy initiatives of the Island Principles drafted in 2002 by a group of the Toronto Island residents and City staff. The tangible and intangible attributes of Toronto Island constitute a significant landscape of historical and cultural value. This study recommends that a framework of a cultural heritage landscape be established as the most appropriate method for recognizing and maintaining this cultural resource for the City of Toronto. Under the Planning Act, the 2005 Provincial Policy Statement defines a cultural landscape as: a defined geographical area of heritage significance which has been modified by human activities and is valued by a community. It involves a grouping(s) of individual heritage features such as structures, spaces, archaeological sites and natural elements, which together form a significant type of heritage form, distinctive from that of its constituent elements or parts .. Currently, the only mechanism the City of Toronto has For the protection of this type of resource is through the application of a Heritage Conservation District under the Ontario Heritage Act.
