Canadian Urbanism Uncovered
Read more articles by Joseph Clement
Last Thursday’s post, Lost without laneways, garnered many requests for information regarding the suggested reading I posted at the end of the article. Donald Chong, one of the authors/editors of Site Unseen: Laneway Architecture & Urbanism in Toronto posted this link to the book on the comments page so I have put it up for all to see. Thanks again to Donald Chong. Enjoy! The book should be available at Ballenford Books on Architecture, 600 Markham Street (Mirvish Village), 416.588.0800.

Um.
Site Unseen, shurely?!
And the library has it, if you can get their site to load.
What were the criteria of the boundaries they chose? I realize the necessity for the authors to narrow their scope, but I don’t remember ever seeing these boundaries used for pre-amalgamated Toronto.
I am a student studying in Australia and find the book very intruiging. Was wondering if there are any sites that would be prepared to ship to Aus?
