The Missing Middle with Craig Rice
ProperTea Podcast
11/15/24 • 36 min
This week on ProperTea, Katie talks with Craig Rice from Laneway Housing about big changes in Toronto’s housing rules. As of May 2023, Toronto has made it possible to build up to four units on any residential property, instead of just one house. You can even add a garden or laneway suite! This means more options for people to find affordable housing in all kinds of neighbourhoods.
Katie and Craig talk about how this “missing middle” helps fill the gap between big apartment buildings and single houses, making the city more livable for everyone. Whether you’re a homeowner, renter, or interested in urban planning, this episode provides essential information to help you make informed decisions in light of Toronto’s shifting housing regulations. Tune in to learn how these changes might impact your neighbourhood and the city at large.
