This is 828 Shaw. It's a 6 minute walk from Ossington Station, situated on what's arguably Toronto's greatest bike highway. The previous structure burned down in 2022. There's currently an application to subdivide the lot into 3 parcels each housing a four-plex for a total of 12 units.

On Saturday I'll be walking with some friends under the team name "Frank Lloyd Walks" on behalf of Sistering, a multi-service 24-hour drop-in for women and trans people from across Toronto. They do great work so support would be deeply appreciated. secure.e2rm.com/registrant/F...

If I were ever invited to give the Superbowl Halftime show, I would accept and then at the very last minute not attend. This would give the masses a practical lesson on the importance of the concept we urbanists call "The Missing Middle".

Love that this is one of the only things I've ever seen that Holyday decided "huh, better not be the lone dissenting voice" on (favourite Holyday moment was when he voted against some kind of bee protections and another councillor went "what have got against bees, Holyday?")

I was upset with the inaction on this file and wanted to find a way to highlight local businesses that have a little less street presence or social media pull due to the imposition of tariffs. This little crowdsourced map came together in about four hours…needs some work but check it out!

sharing final photography for the North Side Housing Shelter - a 10,000-square-foot non-congregate facility in a formerly vacant building, that provides a much-needed place of shelter for 70 homeless men. Trauma informed design infuses the notion of home and safety throughout (c)Gensler/Gillian Fry

In an effort to get off the cursed app, I have revived my dormant newsletter, Another Glass Box, starting with a round-up of me trying to attend a billion things the last week as DesignTO booted up.

Considering how few shelter beds are available, I think this is evidence that there is capacity to tax people more in this city.

Perhaps it’s my keen critical thinking skills honed by years of not using AI, but I didn’t really need a study to tell me this.

Two ghost bikes at Bloor and Avenue adorned with fresh Christmas tributes. There were six cyclist deaths in 2024--we must demand better for 2025.

The government should provide some sort of physio subsidy to every sober alcoholic from the December to January. Just try to imagine the whiplash of clenching your butt nonstop at functions for a month, then BAM! The normies pivot immediately to Dry January. I ask you this, where is my cheque?

A coffee shop in a residential neighbourhood is TOO WILD for Toronto City Council. Thanks for trying @alejandrabravo.bsky.social. I'd shake my head but City Council banned that too. I yearn for the day when disruptive coffee buyers won't destroy neighbourhoods.

I love having a dog. I love waking up at 7 am. I love to pick up dog shit that is the same colour and consistency of the 1/2 pumpkin pie she stole off the counter the night before.
