Just wandered the West End laneways with Colleen Cirillo from the @DavidSuzukiFDN! She's managing invasive plants by introducing natives, creating habitats for birds & insects. Plus, we saw some great veggie gardens & murals! #lovelaneways
Yesterday, I visited some cherished Laneway Projects
π Vibrant murals add color & life to our community π Permeable pavement reduces flooding
π Greening brings nature to the city
These laneways are living parts of our urban life #Toronto#lovethelanewa
"By creating public art & placemaking initiatives to address Accessibility issues head on, disabled communities gain visibility & promote acceptance in the public realm."
Kudos to @STEPSPublicArt for this crucial toolkit.
