Urban Form Case Studies - Ontario Ministry of Infrastructure

The Ontario Growth Secretariat has completed two new case studies of completed projects that illustrate key policies in the Growth Plan for the Greater Golden Horseshoe. The case studies are King Street Reconstruction in Kitchener and Artscape Wychwood Barns in Toronto. These projects were selected because they: • illustrate density targets established in the Growth Plan • support nearby transit, encourage walking, and are mixed use • demonstrate high quality urban design and built form • are highly marketable, economically successful, and award-winning • have environmentally sustainable features • are located in the Greater Golden Horseshoe We encourage you to download these case studies to inform your work, to use as a platform for discussion, and to share with your community, colleagues, and decision-makers.
