This daytime workshop uniting urban scholars, designers, planners, community developers and policy specialists will explore how to take some of the ideas of the Housing Multitudes exhibition forward. Discussion will be especially focused on what is being forgotten or ignored in the proposed “solutions” to housing shortages and affordability that Ontario’s Bill 23, and Toronto’s Housing Action Plan, seek to address.The event will focus on two questions primarily: 1. How can “first growth” suburban neighbourhoods and communities transform the physical infrastructure that surrounds them for greater economic, social and ecological benefit? And 2. What planning, finance and design strategies can Toronto leverage to evolve its vast suburban geography in a way that accommodates its housing needs, makes communities more liveable and contributes to the sustainability of the city? And how might we pilot these ideas? Roundtable participants will include Misha Bereznyak, Alex Bozikovic, Jaegap Chung, Juan Du, Lesli Gaynor, Meg Graham, Marcel Greaux, Karen Kubey, Heela Omarkhail , John Lorinc, Patricia McCarney, Fadi Masoud, Michael Piper, Damon Rich, Jae Shin, Matti Siemiatycki, Shoshanna Saxe and Leslie Woo. The event will be moderated by architecture and urbanism professor Richard Sommer, Director of the Global Cities Institute at the Daniels Faculty and co-curator of the Housing Multitudes exhibition.
