Barton Myers: Dundas-Sherbourne (Toronto, Ont.), Vacant Lottery site plan
Description
"Vacant Lottery" was a special issue of Design Quarterly magazine which was co-written by Barton Myers and George Baird in 1978.
The graphics show the existing buildings in dark blue, new construction in light blue, outside space is orange, and other existing buildings not part of the project are dark grey. For Dundas-Sherbourne, Myers and Diamond added infill housing (the light blue rectangles in the above image) behind the existing housing (dark blue) in order to add density without changing the character of the neighborhood.
