Build on Edges

Build on Edges is an experiment in urban development that aims to devise a cohesive strategy for tactically generating sustainable high-rise communities in urban edge areas. Taking the Ontario Food Terminal as a pilot site, this project draws on case studies across scales to present a comprehensive design toolkit for creating a new type of vertical mixeduse high-rise building. These solutions are expected to be applicable to a wide range of urban territory.
