Thanks so much ReHousing and The Canadian Real Estate Investor Podcast for creating tonight’s event “Unpacking Multiplexes”! I loved both panel discussions, where experts in multiplex housing shared insights and lessons learned. It was also exciting to experience a live demo of ReHousing’s Property Analysis Tool!
We are excited to be partnering with The Canadian Real Estate Investor Podcast and School of Cities, University of Toronto to bring you an exciting event exploring the world of multiplexes on August 22nd at the John H.

#ORGANIC_CITIES : Comment est-ce que Toronto transforme les maisons familiales de banlieue en plusieurs appartements ? Alors que le #ZAN émerge comme une priorité des pouvoirs publics, beaucoup se posent la question symétrique : si l’étalement urbain est stoppé, où allons-nous pouvoir continuer à accueillir les nouveaux habitants ? Au #Canada où sévit une crise du #logement sans précédent, la programme de recherche action ReHousing, co-porté par l’University of Toronto, le Tuf Lab et LGA Architectural Partners croise les approches architecturales et du design urbain pour évaluer le potentiel et trouver les conditions d’activation d’une densification douce des 1ères couronnes de #Toronto. En partant de cas pratiques, les chercheurs explorent des modèles économiques et architecturaux, ainsi que des propositions d’évolutions règlementaires en faveur d’une densification à la parcelle qui réponde, à leur propre initiative, aux besoins des habitants propriétaires et futurs occupants de la ville la plus chère du Canada. Revivez l’intervention de Michael Piper, coordonnateur du projet ReHousing et professeur associé à l’Université de Toronto, lors du colloque ORGANIC CITIES. ▶ Le replay vidéo : https://lnkd.in/e5htSJ5U 📖 La transcription : https://lnkd.in/eJqcDJQE #ORGANIC_CITIES #VillesVivantes #densification_douce #metropoles #logement #Toronto Sciences Po OFCE Xavier Timbeau
