A green strategy for the Greater Toronto waterfront : background and issues : a discussion paper / prepared for the Royal Commission on the Future of the Toronto Waterfront by Ron Reid, Rob Lockhart, and...: Z1-1988/1-41-8E

As the experience in Toronto clearly demonstrates, the urban shore is a limited resource, and the competing demands for its space are great. All too easily, the waterfront can be walled off by industrial use, as happened in the Toronto Harbour earlier this century. And, as more recent experience has shown, the rediscovered waterfront could all too easily become a haven for the wealthy, with public access obscured by a thicket of residential high-rises.
