As in other cities around the world, policymakers, planners, and developers are envisioning the waterfront as a space of promise and a prime location for massive investments. Currently, the waterfront is being marketed as a crucial territorial wedge for economic ascendancy in globally competitive urban areas.Reshaping Toronto's Waterfront analyses how and why 'problem spaces' on the waterfront have become 'opportunity spaces' during the past hundred and fifty years. Contributors with diverse areas of expertise illuminate processes of development and provide fresh analyses of the intermingling of nature and society as they appear in both physical forms and institutional arrangements, which define and produce change. Reshaping Toronto's Waterfront is a fundamental resource for understanding the waterfront as a dynamic space that is neither fully tamed nor wholly uncontrolled. 606 $aUrban renewal$zOntario$zToronto$xHistory 606 $aWaterfronts$zOntario$zToronto$xHistory 606 $aCity planning$zOntario$zToronto$xHistory 607 $aToronto (Ont.)$xHistory 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aUrban renewal$xHistory. 615 0$aWaterfronts$xHistory. 615 0$aCity planning$xHistory. 676 $a307.341609 702 $aDesfor$b Gene 702 $aLaidley$b Jennefer$f1969- 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910462232203321 996 $aReshaping Toronto's waterfront$92187918 997 $aUNINA
