The New Neighbourhood Guidebook and Exhibition
The Guidebook
As planners and designers, we are constantly involved in envisioning new neighborhoods.
The New Neighbourhoods guidebook is the result of a collaborative effort between Smart Density and the MUCP of School of Cities at the University of Toronto. It explored master-planned neighbourhoods from across the globe and looked back at neighbourhoods that began as ambitious visions and studies how they’ve evolved into vibrant, sustainable communities.
Our goal is to inspire new approaches to neighbourhood planning here in the GTA and beyond, ensuring that our cities grow in ways that are resilient, people-centric, and future-proof.
We are here to celebrate the new neighbourhoods we featured in the exhibition by bringing together the brilliant minds behind them, for that - we are hosting a special series of conversations live from the exhibition venue!
Register here for our next webinar:
The exhibition will be open to the public Monday-Friday, 10:00 a.m. - 5:00 p.m., between September 16 and November 8, 2024 at the World Urban Pavilion at Regent Park, Powered by Daniels 660 Dundas St East, Toronto
Fill out the form and get the Neighborhood Guide Book - review all 10 master plans
In this guidebook, we introduce you to 10 outstanding master plans from around the world. First, we briefly describe each plan to offer a glimpse into their unique characteristics. Then, we delve deeper to understand how they approached the phasing challenge, how they realized their initial visions, what kind of public realms they achieved, and what makes them truly remarkable.
