I'm a real estate developer with @globizen based in Toronto. I also write a daily blog about city building that I've been doing since 2013: brandondonnelly.com

It's no longer viable to be a high-density land developer in Toronto. The practice of buying land, rezoning it for a higher-and-better use, and then selling it for a margin, is over — at least for the time being. https://brandondonnelly.com/land-prices-have-been-flat

The Azorean adventure is over. But it wouldn't be a trip to Europe without some sort of post about street dimensions. https://brandondonnelly.com/the-narrowest-street-or-lane-on-sao-miguel

One thing I didn't appreciate until recently is that a large majority of the Portuguese in Toronto (70%?) are of Azorean descent, particularly from the island of São Miguel. This place.
