Reviews
Toronto is at its greatest crossroads: Will it become one of the great, innovative and inclusive global cities of the 21st century, or will it be stymied by its challenges of inequality, affordability, political polarization and its own meekness? Ken Greenberg's Toronto Reborn tells the remarkable story of a city that has come so far, has so much promise, and can be a beacon for cities across the world. Must reading for mayors, city-builders, businesses, and everyone who is concerned with our collective urban future., Ken Greenberg has played an instrumental role in reshaping Toronto for the better over the last forty years. In his book Toronto Reborn, we get his insights into those astounding changes and the challenges we must address to fully realize our city's potential., This book will be an invaluable resource for all people interested in cities, especially for those who call Toronto home. It will help develop a shared vision and make it even better for all, especially for the most vulnerable., This book arrives at a critical moment in Toronto's history. After several decades of explosive growth and social change -- which Greenberg frames with insight and optimism -- the city is suddenly being confronted with the dramatic policy shifts of a new provincial government. My hope is that the forces Greenberg describes can prevail, and that Toronto can continue its emergence as a global city., City-building is not a job for those who want instant gratification. Ken Greenberg has been playing the urbanism long-game for six decades -- his forethought and instincts on display in Toronto Reborn have been proven correct and the city is now reaping the rewards. But make no mistake: the challenges and obstacles facing Toronto, both political and environmental, are real and only intensifying. Ken has made those issues crystal clear and it's up to the next generation of civic leaders to continue to point our city in the right direction., Toronto Reborn is a must read for all who care passionately about the future of Toronto. Having been deeply involved in so many of the exciting new initiatives that are re-inventing Toronto, Ken is able to offer an expert and unique history of these events. It is a hopeful and inspiring story of a series of out-of-the-box initiatives over the past fifty years that taken together add up to a new, inclusive, and progressive way to do city building. Will the promise of Toronto be fulfilled in the new political environment? Toronto Reborn sets out what is at stake., Ken Greenberg's Toronto Reborn is a great reminder of how far this city has travelled -- just as we are poised for dramatically more change. We need to look back to remind ourselves how a values-based city -- a city with a social conscience -- evolved, and how that might influence our future., This is a delicious read for all North American urbanists. As Greenberg details the key initiatives that are shaping Toronto's transformation, he couples a searing critique of past follies with a deep and compelling optimism that our inclusiveness, diversity, open-mindedness, and civility is resulting in a great city that is steadfastly Canadian, but also a world inspiration., Toronto is at its greatest crossroads: Will it become one of the great, innovative and inclusive global city of the 21st century, or will it be stymied by its challenges of inequality, affordability, political polarization and its own meekness. Ken Greenberg's Toronto Reborn tells the remarkable story of a city that has come so far, has so much promise, and can be a beacon for cities across the world. Mandatory reading for mayors, city-builders, businesses and everyone who is concerned with our collective urban future., Although Toronto's great diversity and social cohesion have been celebrated for decades, a deeper understanding of the city's collective character remained elusive. In Toronto Reborn , Ken Greenberg weaves a bold new picture of Toronto, revealing its essence and distinctive style., We are incredibly fortunate to have Ken in our midst, not only observing and chronicling the evolution of our city, but actively shaping how our neighbourhoods are envisioned and built. His work in Regent Park and in our 'city of the arts' on the Waterfront has been enormously impactful. Ken's vision and voice are making Toronto an even better place to live, work, learn, and play.
