October 31, 2019, Toronto, ON –  When Waterfront Toronto released the Master Innovation and Development Plan (MIDP) to the public this past June, I wrote an open letter outlining the Board’s early impressions of Sidewalk Labs’ proposal. The letter acknowledged that there were some exciting ideas that respond to challenges we face, particularly related to environmental sustainability and economic development. The letter also clearly outlined several areas of concern Waterfront Toronto would need to see resolved before proceeding to an evaluation of the proposal.
