Sustainable Urban Design on Toronto's Waterfront

A video outlining new development plans for Toronto's Lower Don Lands. Designed to connect the surrounding neighborhoods of eastern and central Toronto, the Lower Don Lands will provide the city and the world with a new model of sustainable urban living for the 21st century. The project has been selected as one of 16 founding projects of the newly launched Climate + Development Program, a partnership between the Clinton Climate Initiative and the US Green Building Council.

I was almost surprised that we were doing this until i seen the partnerships.. noo wonder!! Ppl in Toronto have this anti creativity, pro over regulate everything mentality. Ppl here are like "nah u don't know what ur talking about that will never amount to anything etc etc" while in the U.S. & Europe ppl are more like "hmm so lets figure how we can make that idea workout"
