[rfmcdonald]

• John Lorinc at Spacing looks at how the idea of municipal autonomy for Toronto should not be seen as a final solution.


• blogTO notes the contracting number of neighbourhoods open for first-time buyers, here.


• Airbnb, blogTO notes, is definitely impacting the wider real estate network.


• King Street's transit operations should be taken as a model for wider Toronto. Spacing has it.


• The story of the rainbow tunnel visible on the northbound DVP is a sad one worth knowing. Global News has it.
