New @missingmiddleca piece, on how the City of Ottawa's proposed bylaw has lower N1 & N2 height limits in urban areas than in the suburbs. The City of Ottawa Needs More Family-Friendly Housing. Instead, They're Contemplating Downzoning. Read here: www.missingmiddleini...

Big news for housing in our community: Construction starts this month on 158 affordable rentals and 47 supportive homes at the 900 block of Pandora + a new community centre and childcare space. AND, thanks to the new Infrastructure Projects Act, we’re getting projects like this built faster.

This is such a common #housing myth that it's practically cliche Housing is not just for "new residents". It's for current residents too. God forbid a resident of the city wants to move our of their parents' home, afford a place in the city they grew up in, or make the leap from renting to owning.

As always, Uytae is a gem, making approachable videos that help explain some of the causes of the housing crisis. Highly recommend to watch if you haven’t yet! Let’s talk a bit more about development costs, Vancouver in particular. Because we do some things right, and other things horribly wrong.

Condo sales are down but some are being converted to rental. Why? Mentioned in the article: interest rates, a city rental incentive program. Not mentioned: rental HST removed by feds and province, reduced DCs for 2- and 3-bedroom rentals by province. Policy matters! www.thestar.com/real-estate/...

As the city of Toronto continues to struggle with a housing crisis, hundreds of planned new condos will never get built.

But some of these cancelled units will be converted to rentals.

Eight Toronto projects encompassing 1,899 condo units have been cancelled since the beginning of 2024, according to new data from research firm Urbanation.

Three more projects, with 338 units, are on hold; and six developments, with 1,434 units, are being converted to rentals.

When you don’t build enough housing, many people can’t move out of their parents’ place. Others are stuck living with roommates or even relationships they don’t want. Remember this every time someone says “we don’t need any more housing” or “what about shadows?”.
