Abstract:
The process by which one particular section of Toronto's waterfront, Ashbridge's Bay, was developed during the 1889-1910 period is analysed in the context of broader industrialization and urban reform movements. Primary sources, largely from the Toronto Harbour Commissioners' Archives recently opened to the public, and the City of Toronto Archives, provide the basis for the analysis. Evidence demonstrates that Toronto's influential 1912 waterfront plan, crucial in reshaping the lakefront, was built on numerous previous schemes for improving the port, the harbour, and adjacent areas.

Abstract:
We present an overview of physical processes that drive water circulation within the extended system of coastal embayments in the Toronto Harbour. The different water circulation patterns occur at various spatial and temporal scales, and our paper provides context for the various efforts to improve water quality by the Toronto and Region Remedial Action Plan. Velocity profiles and water level measurements showed that the harbour’s Helmholtz pumping mode drives a 1- hour period oscillation, which can influence flushing of the shallow embayments. This process likely persists year-round and

Abstract:
Port authorities have been important presences in Canada's port cities, playing major roles in determining the physical form and land-use functions of urban waterfront lands. Their formative roles warrant attention from scholars concerned with the city-building process in Canada. This study focuses upon one such body, The Toronto Harbour Commissioners, and how and why it has functioned as a land development agency. An analysis of the commissions Outer Harbour project between 1912 and 1968 shows the commissions central concern with land development: ostensibly presented as a harbour facility, t

Abstract:
This study was designed to evaluate the risk that tributyltin (TBT) levels in harbour sediments pose to the freshwater invertebrate Hyalella azteca and to rank TBT as an environmental concern compared with inorganic metal species. Four-week toxicity tests and 2-week bioaccumulation tests were conducted with sediments collected from five harbours historically contaminated with TBT: Montreal, Kingston, Toronto, Hamilton, and Port Weller. While there was no observable effect of TBT on survival or growth of H. azteca, bioaccumulation of TBT exceeded levels expected to cause chronic toxicity in som

Abstract:
Abstract Concentrations of 89 toxic organic pollutants (25 contaminants, including chlorobenzenes and pesticides, and 64 PCB isomers) were measured in Lake Ontario along the Toronto Waterfront area during the spring, summer and fall of 1987. Data indicate that Humber Bay, the inner harbour, and the areas near the Toronto Main Sewage Treatment Plant (STP) are the most polluted. While contaminant levels in some offshore areas are high, average levels for most contaminants are similar to whole-lake levels. Lake Ontario receives large amounts of pollutants from atmospheric sources and the Niagara

Urban waterfronts play a crucial role in the socio-economic and ecological fabric of cities worldwide. This paper explores how landscape architecture and ecological design principles can transform urban waterfronts into vibrant and sustainable tourist destinations. Drawing insights from case studies such as Sydney Harbour in Australia and the Toronto Waterfront in Canada, the study highlights innovative design strategies that balance urban development with environmental sustainability.

This chapter applies different concepts of radical street theatre and urban performance in order to theorize the ways in which food trucks form temporary communities in urban spaces through embodied, performative intervention. An ethnographic portrait of one of Toronto’s first and best-known food truck entrepreneurs, Fidel Gastro, is employed to demonstrate the precarious position food trucks hold within the political narratives governing public space in the city of Toronto, and the ambivalence food truck entrepreneurs display toward current configurations of urban market economies.

The Port Lands in Downtown Toronto is a vast waterfront area that has been long remained undeveloped. This is due to the dual challenges of soil contamination resulting from decades of industrial activities and high flooding potential from the nearby Don River. The Port Lands Flood Protection and Enabling Infrastructure Project (PLFP) seeks to unlock the development potential of this strategic downtown land. This initiative also simultaneously mitigating flood risks for the Port Lands and surrounding areas. The project involves the creation of a new river channel through the existing Port Land
