Re: naming a street after Jane Jacobs – good idea, but let’s make sure it’s one with lots of streetlife… another good idea would be to rename Cedarvale Park “Jane Jacobs Memorial Ravine” or something, because it was the thing most directly saved from the Spadina Expressway… just went through the park for the first time last week… it’s a beautiful place!
