Synopsis

A full-colour guide to dozens of unique outdoor spaces that highlight Toronto as a sustainable, liveable city.

Toronto is rich in public spaces -- deeply incised ravines, lively neighbourhoods, lush gardens and parks, iconic bridges, even repurposed industrial silos and undercrofts of elevated highways. Urban designer Ken Greenberg and Toronto aficionado Eti Greenberg have combed the city on foot and by tandem bike, discovering some of Toronto's best outdoor public spaces.

In Exploring Toronto, they have gathered twenty-eight of their favourite spots, each offering something unique -- a flash of ingenious design, a surprise vantage point, or simply relief from the hum of traffic. Ken and Eti bring their distinctive perspective, informed by years of work in urban design, to each of their choices, providing readers (and explorers) with the full story of the history, design, and appeal of each one-of-a-kind place.
