Partner Ralph Giannone presents ULI Tour of Don Mills. “Don Mills was planned Macklin Hancock, an award-winning urban planner, as a self-supporting “new town” that was Canada’s answer to the Levittowns south of the border. It was built between 1952 and 1965 on 835 hectares (2,062 acres) of land between the west and east Don River valleys. Industry, commerce, and major roads were arranged to be accessible but insulated from residential areas.” More information on the events can be found here.
