    Midtown in Focus Parks and Public Realm Plan Part 3 of 3

    Attachment 2 - Part 3 of 3 CHAPTER 8 CITY OF TORONTO 2018 102 A CONNECTED AND VERSATILE NETWORK OF PUBLIC PARKS The parkland analysis and public feedback received have been synthesized with new park spaces previously identified as part of the 2014 Midtown in Focus: Parks, Open Space and Streetscape Master Plan to create a connected and versatile network of public parks for Midtown (Figure 11). The network capitalizes on the area’s existing park assets with an eye to expanding these parks and making better use of these spaces to support local needs. It also identifies a series of proposed public parks of all shapes and sizes throughout the area. In some instances, the identification of proposed parks is opportunistic to complement and further strengthen the Public Realm Moves or to recognize the transformative potential associated with the existing subway trench and Davisville Yard. In other instances, a practical approach has been taken to provide new park spaces capable of accommodating a range of locally-oriented passive and active activities throughout the area that will not only provide new park spaces, but also fill in missing gaps. Taken as a whole, the network of public parks that will be created responds to the challenges and opportunities facing Midtown both now and into the future. It has the potential to add at least 17 hectares of new parkland to Midtown’s existing 26.2 hectares of parkland. 103 Figure 11: Parks and Open Space Network Plan BLYTHWOOD ROAD Sherwood Park BRIAR HILL ROAD SHERWOOD AVE KEEWATIN AVE ROSELAWN AVE

    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

    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.
  • City Planning Division - Study Work Program Update

    City Planning Division - Study Work Program Update

    PH20.2 REPORT FOR ACTION City Planning Division - Study Work Program Update Date: January 5, 2021 To: Planning and Housing Committee From: Chief Planner and Executive Director, City Planning Wards: All SUMMARY This report provides the City Planning Division's annual update on its Study Work Program. 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. Looking ahead, the 2021 Study Work Program reflects Council's direction
  • Revised Recommendations: Eglinton Crosstown LRT Stations Naming

    Revised Recommendations: Eglinton Crosstown LRT Stations Naming

    STAFF REPORT To: Metrolinx Board of Directors From: Leslie Woo, Chief Planning Officer Date: January 14, 2016 Re: Revised Recommendations: Eglinton Crosstown LRT Stations and Stops Naming Executive Summary: Staff is seeking final approval of Eglinton Crosstown LRT station and stop names (Appendix A). The December 3, 2015 report of the Chief Planning Officer recommended Eglinton Crosstown LRT Station and Stop Names based on the Naming Principles and Protocols developed following a 12 month (between late 2014 and late 2015) long engagement process with GTHA local transit operators (Appendix B). The public was encouraged to provide feedback on proposed station and stop names online in October 2015. The Toronto Transit Commission also provided its own recommendations on the proposed names at its meeting of November 23, 2015. At the December 3, 2015 Board meeting, three recommended location names were questioned: Lebovic, Forest Hill and Fairbank and staff were to report back on the basis of this Board feedback. Since the December 3, 2015 meeting staff undertook: • a deeper analysis and exploration of possible alternative names for these three locations; and • sought additional feedback from local councillors and MPPs on the three locations. The revised recommendations are i) to use Hakimi in place of Lebovic; ii) no change be made to Forest Hill; and iii) no change be made to Fairbank. In addition, staff plan to use in-station way-finding to assist customers in navigating between stations and the surface street system. As well, Toronto Councillor Thompson raised the question on the naming of the “Golden Mile” station. No change is being proposed by staff.
