The future cityscape: 11 buildings that will change Toronto
These development projects will change how we experience the city – for better or worse By Julia Mastroianni
May 27, 2021
Torontonians may have been locked down over the past year during the pandemic, but construction and development kept going. Now, with the city on course to slowly emerge, we’re taking a look at some of the most interesting buildings and developments slated to go up in the next few years that will transform how we experience the cityscape – for better or for worse.
From developments billed as sustainable to future skyline icons and hyped neighbourhood game-changers, we looked at projects that will alter the city in environmental and aesthetic ways, impact the city’s heritage buildings and attempt to address the city’s affordable housing crisis.
Aslanadis, who has been making Toronto-themed merch through the Button Machine for the last 10 years, says the idea for his new buttons came from a frustration with smug COVID denialists.
He says he s fortunate not to have had many personal experiences within his own network, but Aslanadis is aware there are people in Toronto spreading misinformation across the city, including that annoying dude bro with the veneers that s always at the lockdown protests. They ll tell you you re brainwashed, call you sheep, all the while using bad logic and citing poor information about why COVID isn t real or isn t a real threat, says Aslanadis.
The history of Knob Hill Farms in Toronto
The lasting legacy of Knob Hill Farms might be their popular
shopping laundry baskets, but they deserve more recognition for pioneering the very first big-box stores to Toronto.
Created in 1951 by Macedonian immigrant Steve Stavro, Knob Hills Farms got its name from something Stavro had seen stenciled on the side of a box of produce from California.
The rise of Knob Hill Farms
Stavro was a true man of the people who believed in low prices and high quality for the working class.
As part of this underserved community, Stavro shared many of the same traits as Toronto’s Ed Mirvish (indeed, Stavro was often described as the Honest Ed of local grocers).
Toronto is getting a brand new park at the former Honest Ed s site blogto.com - get the latest breaking news, showbiz & celebrity photos, sport news & rumours, viral videos and top stories from blogto.com Daily Mail and Mail on Sunday newspapers.
