Feb 5 - Growing Pains


There was an article in the paper about US today. It was an article subtitled 'High Density Housing, Neighborhoods Grappling with Change', namely Sheppard Ave.

It is worth a look as it has quotes from Frank Bruni, a resident group president who has worked through a ton of applications over in the Yonge & Sheppard area. I think he manages to weigh the good against the bad in a fairly balanced way.

There are some quotes from the City's new Chief Planner, Ted Tyndorf, but most space in the article is devoted to the comments of Frank whose neighborhood of West Lansing has really lived through the boom. Check it out <http://www.thestar.com>
