Hi, Russil.

Above, in regards to a hypothetical about a large 1bdm suite in an older building, you wrote "The builder then needs to provide adequate space, both for the interim housing and in the new building, which in this example may require a 2BR or 3BR apartment." Could you please point out where the city policy is on this? I haven't been able to find it.

Thanks, though, for this article. There's a lot of misinformation out there regarding the Broadway Plan.

Hi Russil,

Thank you for this post. I would be extremely curious to hear your thoughts on this project: https://www.shapeyourcity.ca/1726-w-11-ave

I was surprised to see this proposal as it replaces an existing rental apartment. I personally am against the carbon, displacement, neighbourhood-disruption factors and I do not really see the upside of such a project when there is so much more "low-hanging fruit" to go after in terms of increasing housing supply.
