[URBAN NOTE] Five Toronto links: Industry Street and York, Parkdale condos, Tories, Black Friday

• Daniel Rotsztain writes about how Industry Street in the old city of York is becoming the heart of a new sort of inner suburb stretch, over in The Globe and Mail.


• NOW Toronto looks at some of the massive new condo developments scheduled to develop in Parkdale in the next few years. This neighbourhood will not look the same. More here.


• The Tories' project for Toronto, involving massive investment in subways, looks nice. Is it? The Toronto Star has more.


• I agree entirely with Edward Keenan's argument about how Toronto City Hall should be open to everyone. The article is at the Toronto Star, here.


• Black Friday was as huge as you'd expect in Toronto this year. The Toronto Star reports here.
