Course Description

Toronto has often been described as a "City of Neighbourhoods." Some began as villages or towns while others were suburbs before joining the City. Through hundreds of images we'll explore the architecture and history of approximately a dozen of our neighbourhoods. Who lived there and why? What form did their houses and businesses take? What remains today of the original settlements? Examples of neighbourhoods will include Yorkville, the Beach and the Junction. One class will be a walking tour.

Learning Outcomes

  • Learn how and why many Toronto neighbourhoods developed
  • Recognize the building types seen in a neighbourhood
  • Consider the value of architectural preservation in neighbourhoods
  • Evaluate the effects of new building types and styles in neighbourhoods
