Mary Florence MacDonald curator Modernist apartment towers of St James Town based on Le Corbusier's "towers in the park" concept The postwar years also saw the rise of apartment style housing in the 1960s and 1970s this kind of housing was mostly focused on low to middle income residents Beginning in the 1950s the city bulldozed older lower income neighbourhoods replacing them with housing projects ultimately destroying large sections of Victorian housing the earliest and most notorious example of such projects was Regent Park it replaced a large portion of Cabbagetown with a series of low-rise and high-rise buildings that quickly became crime-ridden and even more depressed than the neighbourhood it replaced in later years similar projects such as Moss Park and Alexandra Park were less disastrous but also far from successful Canada's densest community St James Town was built in this era as a high-rise community of private and public housing in separate towers also replacing a Victorian neighbourhood These patterns changed dramatically beginning in the 1970s and gentrification began transforming once poor neighbourhoods such as Cabbagetown into some of the city's most popular and expensive real estate Outside of the core even new neighbourhoods experienced significant high-rise apartment building construction as builders embraced the "towers in the park" design invented by Le Corbusier the towers were built further from the sidewalk leaving room on the property around the edifice for parking lawns trees and other landscaping They are typically simple brick-clad high-rise buildings with rectangular footprints and little ornamentation other than repeating series of balconies for each apartment However some apartment buildings from this era utilize less conventional designs in the "tower in the park" format such as the Prince Arthur Towers Jane-Exbury Towers and 44 Walmer Road designed by Uno Prii In 1972 the Canadian tax code was radically altered making rental housing much less attractive to investors At the same time deindustrialization opened a number of new areas to residential development the new projects took the form of condominiums This form of housing was introduced in the province's Condominium Act in the 1960s but it was not until the 1980s that condos become very popular An initial condo boom started in 1986 but the market collapsed in the late 1980s and early 1990s recession and many investors were badly mauled In 1995 condo prices were still 30% below the earlier highs. That year a new boom began in Toronto that has continued to this day An unprecedented number of new projects have been built in Toronto in 2000 Condo Life magazine listed 152 separate projects underway within the city of Toronto by 2007 the number of projects in the GTA had reached 247 This development has been concentrated in the downtown core especially in the former industrial areas just outside the central business district the largest such project is CityPlace a cluster of condo towers on former railway lands by the lake shore This $2 billion project will eventually consist of 20 different towers housing some 12,000 people. Transit-oriented developments are also common in Toronto such as at North York Centre and Sheppard East along the namesake subway line and Sheppard West along the subway line's future westward extension Commercial architecture. . . ! .

Mackenzie met with organized resistance as the newly resurrected "British Constitutional Society" with William H Draper as president Tory aldermen Carfrae Monro and Denison as vice-presidents and common councilman and newspaper publisher George Gurnett as secretary met the night before and "from 150 to 200 of the most respectable portion of the community assembled and unanimously resolved to meet the Mayor upon his own invitation." Sheriff William Jarvis took over the meeting and interrupted Mayor Mackenzie "to propose to the Meeting a vote of censure on his conduct as Mayor." in the resulting pandemonium the two sides agreed that they would hold a second meeting the next day In 1837 a revolutionary insurrection was crushed by British authorities and Canadian volunteer units at Montgomery's Tavern on Yonge Street The Tories called the meeting for three in the afternoon so that the working class "mechanics" would not be able to attend the inability of the mechanics to attend was their saving grace for the meeting ended in a terrible tragedy when the packed gallery overlooking Market Square collapsed pitching the onlookers into the butcher's stalls below killing four and injuring dozens the Tory press immediately placed the blame on Mackenzie even though he didn't attend the Toronto mechanics ironically spared the carnage because of the hour at which the meeting was appointed did not appear to be swayed by the Tory press in the October 1834 provincial elections Mackenzie was overwhelmingly elected in the second riding of York; Sheriff William Jarvis running in the city of Toronto lost to reformer James Edward Small by the slim margin of 252 to 260 votes Toronto was the site of the key events of the Upper Canada Rebellion in 1837 led by Mackenzie In 1841 the first gas street lamps appeared in Toronto Over 100 were installed that year in time for author Charles Dickens' visit in May 1842 Dickens described Toronto as "full of life motion business and improvement the streets are well-paved and lighted with gas." Dickens was on a North American tour View of Toronto looking west from King and Jarvis in 1845 the buildings right of the trees were later destroyed in the Great Fire of 1849 During the Typhus epidemic of 1847 863 Irish immigrants died of typhus at fever sheds built at the Toronto Hospital at the northwest corner of King Street and John Street the epidemic also killed the first Bishop of Toronto Michael Power while providing care and ministering to Irish immigrants fleeing the Great Famine The April 7 1849 Cathedral Fire destroyed the "Market Block" north of Market Square and St Lawrence Market as well as the first St James' Cathedral and a portion of Toronto's first City Hall While Toronto had a firefighting brigade and two fire halls the force could not stop the large fire and many businesses were lost a period of rebuilding followed After the Upper Canada Rebellion resentments between the ruling factions of the Family Compact and the Reform elements in Toronto continued as Irish and other Catholics migrated to Toronto and became a larger part of the population the Orange Order representing Protestant elements loyal to the British Crown fought to keep control of the ruling government and civil services the police constabulary and the fire departments were controlled through patronage and were under Orange control Orange elements were known to use violence against Catholics and Reformers and were immune to prosecution it would not be until the 20th Century that Toronto would have its first Catholic mayor Latter 19th century. .
