show moreLast month, the City of Toronto bylaw on garden suites came into effect. These small, back yard units have been popping up in other major North American cities like Los Angeles and Halifax. Municipal governments see them as a way to increase housing options for residents.
We’ll hear from the Executive Director of Toronto City Planning, Gregg Lintern, about bringing in the bylaw. Shelach McCartney, a planning and housing professors at TMU and the director of the Together Design Lab here at the school, will tell us about the potential impacts these suites will have, and how laneway suites can help us with predictions.

Then, Andy Lee gives us a sneak peek of The Met Dining Hall’s menu for this year’s Summerlicious festival. And while Summerlicious is returning after a two year pandemic hiatus, this is the first time ever the university dining hall is participating.
