Building Boom
TORONTO. In the dollar value of construction permits which have been issued, Toronto, Ontario, has displaced Chicago as third-ranking city in North America. Los Angeles is first and New York second. The Toronto Real Estate Board says Toronto will account for 17.7 per cent of the £3OOO million which Canada will spend on building this year. Toronto’s projects include plants, expressways, a subway, shops, houses, roads, sewers, apartment buildings, water mains and spectacular skyscrapers. Among the most dramatic is the new Toronto-Dominion Bank complex, which is now just a huge hole in the ground but will be the site of Canada’s tallest building.
