https://youtu.be/sJFn20hzccI The City of Vancouver recently published this video talking about missing middle housing. For those of you who are following this trend (and reading this blog), there won't be a lot that is new in the video (although Uytae Lee is great). But I'm sharing it here, anyway, for three reasons. One, it's an example of Toronto being ahead of Vancouver, which wasn't the case with laneway housing. Vancouver started allowing these first. Two, it is further evidence that this shift toward intensifying low-rise residential neighbourhoods is really happening -- and gaining momentum -- all across North America. And three, the City of Vancouver is about to bring forward new multiplex housing policies. So now is a good time to get involved and say things.
