Book Synopsis

THE TORONTO STAR''S  "30 BOOKS WE CAN''T WAIT TO READ THIS SPRING"

The updated edition of a Toronto favourite meanders around some of the city’s unique neighborhoods and considers what makes a city walkable

What is the ''Toronto look''? Glass skyscrapers rise beside Victorian homes, and Brutalist apartment buildings often mark the edge of leafy ravines, creating a city of contrasts whose architectural look can only be defined by telling the story of how it came together and how it works, today, as an imperfect machine.

Shawn Micallef has been examining Toronto’s streetscapes for decades. His psychogeographic reportages situate Toronto''s buildings and streets in living, breathing detail, and tell us about the people who use them; the ways, intended or otherwise, that they are being used; and how they are evolving.
