Upzoning Toronto's Major Streets: Naama Blonder at the Missing Middle Summit 2024
On May 23, professionals who work in the industry to develop missing middle housing, as well as those interested in building them, gathered at the Toronto Reference Library for a one-day conference.
The Missing Middle podcast team spoke to the presenters and will be sharing those interviews with you each week on Fridays throughout this month.
Naama Blonder is an architect and urban planner with Smart Density, which she co-founded. She spoke to us on the day Toronto City Council was about to approve an expansion to what's allowed to be built on its major streets -- which previously had been much more limited than you'd think!
