About the book

"Underappreciated and misunderstood, the more than fifty concrete projects considered here represent an exciting era of cultural investment and design innovation. A product of Canada's coming into its own culturally, economically and artistically, Toronto's modern concrete heritage is a testament to Canadian optimism and nation-building following the second world war." "Concrete Toronto brings together the perspectives of a diverse group of experts who re-examine and explore these buildings. You will find the insights of many of the original architects, local practitioners from some of Toronto's leading architecture and engineering firms, city planners, university faculty and students, historians and journalists. Together they explore, with new and archival photos, drawings, interviews, articles, and case studies, the past and future of our concrete buildings and the role of concrete as a material in their conception."--BOOK JACKET.
