Growing with the City

Growing with the City is a Friends of Allan Garden’s initiative to cultivate continued engagement, fundraising, and stewardship in the development of cultural and capital projects in Allan Gardens, a City of Toronto park and conservatory. I was the project manager that saw this document come to fruition. I was also a primary contributor and editor. See the full document here.

Growing with the City was adopted by Toronto City Council on October 10th, 2024, and has since won several awards including from the Ontario Association of Landscape Architects, the Ontario Professional Planners Institute, and Councillor Chris Moise’s Ward 13 office.
