PART I: JOHN LORINC

14 MARCH, 2011

Come join us as we engage eminent Torontonian thinkers and writers to discuss important issues facing our city.

John Lorinc will be lecturing on the planning, land-use and built form implications of bringing subways to suburban neighbourhoods. How are these proposals best financed? How can mixed-use development be facilitated? What other challenges arise when high-order transit is brought to low-density areas?

Lorinc is a Toronto freelance journalist. He has covered local politics and municipal affairs since 1995 for several publications including The Globe and Mail, Spacing Magazine, Walrus Magazine and Toronto Life. He is the author of The New City: How the Crisis in Canada's Urban Regions is Reshaping the Nation (Penguin, 2006) and Cities: A Groundwork Guide (Groundwood/House of Anansi, 2008). 

LECTURE BEGINS AT 6:30PM, THE GARDINER MUSEUM, 111 QUEEN’S PARK, TORONTO
