Ever wonder how the TTC subway line actually dictates the value of your neighbourhood? UrbanToronto has teamed up with the Council on Vertical Urbanism (CVU) for an eye-opening walking tour series, ‘Transit+Towers,’ exploring the symbiotic relationship between transit infrastructure and urban development along the Yonge Street corridor. From the historic hub of Union Station to the evolving high-density nodes of Yonge and Eglinton, this series offers an ‘urban classroom’ experience for those looking to understand the forces—financial, heritage-based, and structural—that drive Toronto’s built form. Participants will examine five distinct sites, gaining a grounded perspective on how transit access influences density and land use. Whether you are an industry professional or a curious resident, these tours provide a rare look at the mechanics behind Toronto’s most dynamic neighbourhoods.
