Two weeks ago I gave a brief presentation at [The Laneway Project’s](http://www.thelanewayproject.ca) inaugural summit here in Toronto. I then wrote about it [here on ATC](http://brandondonnelly.com/post/103229498983/laneway-summit-post-mortem).

At the time, I wasn’t sure if the event was being filmed or not, but it turns out it was. So here is my presentation from the event. It’s just over 7 minutes. [Click here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vdMNC1BtUz8#t=375) if you can’t see it below.

If you’d like to see the other 5 presentations and the Q&A session, [click here](http://distl.co/journal/?p=691). 

Following the event, I was also interviewed by a radio show out of Calgary called Space + Place. If you are really into laneways and would like to listen to that as well, [go here](http://cjsw.com/program/spaceandplace/#.VH9OTO2nhyg).

I’ve said this before, but I’ll say it again: I continue to be amazed by how much interest there is — both here in Toronto and elsewhere — in laneways. They may be overlooked today, but that’s going to change. It’s inevitable.
