[URBAN NOTE] Five Toronto links: June Rowlands, Sidewalk Labs, L Tower, race in schools, TTC

[rfmcdonald]

• The Toronto Star pays respect to the late June Rowlands, Toronto's first female mayor.


• Google's Sidewalk Labs project, intended to remake Quayside, is already resulting in jobs--in New York City? MacLean's reports.


• The flooding at the L Tower downtown sounds terrible. The Toronto Star reports.


• Race, unsurprisingly, remains a significant divide in Toronto schools. NOW Toronto reports.


• The TTC is increasing bus service on the Dundas and Carlton routes to compensate for Bombardier's failure to deliver. CBC reports.

About the L Tower

An entire residential skyscraper emptied out by basement-flooding. 59 stories.

Frightening, that.
