\"Still<\/p>\n

Though there’s urban development panels aplenty in Toronto, few of them have taken place in the neighbourhood that’s currently experiencing the biggest change: Regent Park.<\/p>\n

So I’m hoping to make it over there tomorrow afternoon to check out Rethinking Redevelopment, a panel of filmmakers and residents talking about whether such large-scale slash-and-burn strategies are a good idea in any city, Toronto included. It’s part of the Regent Park Film Fest<\/a>, which kicked off Wednesday and wraps up Sunday.<\/p>\n

Some interesting films will screen to get discussion started, including Brooklyn Matters<\/a>, a doc on contested development in the once-affordable borough, and Voices of Cabrini<\/a>, which looks at the teardown of Cabrini Green, Chicago’s best-known public housing development, by a federal program aimed to get rid of high-rise public housing. There’s also a locally produced doc on the Cabbagetown Restaurant<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It all gets started at 1pm at Nelson Mandela Public School, 440 Shuter East. Admission, far as I can tell, is free.<\/p>\n
