Discover the city in all its many guises with this authoritative architectural guide, newly updated and expanded.

Toronto has been hailed as ""a city in the making"" and ""the city that works."" It's an ongoing project- in recent years Canada's largest city has experienced transformative, exciting change. But just what does contemporary Toronto look like? This authoritative architectural guide, newly updated and expanded, leads readers on 26 walking tours-revealing the evolution of the place from a quiet Georgian town to a dynamic global city. More than 1,000 designs are featured- from modest Victorian houses to shimmering downtown towers and cultural landmarks. Over 300 photographs, 29 maps, a description of architectural styles, a glossary of architectural terms, and indexes of architects and buildings pilot readers through Toronto's diverse cityscape. New sections illustrate the swiftly changing face of Toronto's waterfront and design highlights across the region. Originally written by architectural journalist Patricia McHugh and enhanced with new material and insights by Globe and Mail architecture critic Alex Bozikovic, this definitive guide offers a revealing exploration of Toronto's past and future, for the city's visitors and locals alike.
