Imagine the Danforth with us (May 11) + recap of other events

Please join DECA on Monday, May 11 at 7:00pm at Tobias House (695 Coxwell Avenue) for Imagine the Danforth.

This public forum will be an opportunity for the community to hear urban mentor and former chief planner for the City of Toronto, Paul Bedford, present the top 10 ideas for the Danforth generated from his planning students at the University of Toronto.  Joining them will be architecture students from Ryerson University, who will present their vision and development of the Danforth East Streetcar Yards (located south-east of the Danforth and Coxwell.)

This will be a fun opportunity to Imagine the future of the Danforth – hope to see you there!
