There is a remarkable trend happening in condominium neighbourhoods across the GTA — and especially in the City of Toronto: families are being raised in high-density communities. The city has responded with a study looking at how best to accommodate the needs of children in high-density areas. The building and land development industry is responding to the demand for family-friendly condos and a key component is to design suites that are practical and appealing to parents with young children. That means maximizing living space to keep the homes affordable, while ensuring there is ample space to store toys, bicycles and strollers. The city and the development industry have met the challenge by creating innovative public spaces for families such as Canoe Landing Park at CityPlace, Underpass Park in the River City development and Sherbourne Common on East Bayfront.
