General Jury Comments

The jury was very impressed by the great variety in projects and the generally high quality of submissions. They were, however, disappointed that there were not more submissions for open spaces, landscapes and projects with a specific focus on environmental sustainability.

The jury was looking for projects that made a particular contribution to their neighbourhood or urban district, especially, projects that set a great model or precedent and that could have wider application to other sites.

The jury put an emphasis on urban design, and recognized submissions that clearly described not only the details of the project, but the characteristics of the context. The jury decided, as policy, to make final decisions on Awards and Honourable Mentions only after visiting projects to more fully assess their excellence in their context.

The jury noted that too many projects were submitted without sufficient contextual information. In an effort to clarify the contribution to urban design, the criteria for award submission should be modified in the future to include site context maps with a specific description of how the project helps make a better street, neighbourhood or district.

The jury lamented the fact that there were not more great projects submitted from areas outside of the downtown core (old Etobicoke, North York, York, East York, Scarborough).

The jury applauds the City of Toronto for its Campaign for Beautiful Places, and feels that programs like the Architecture & Urban Design Awards will set good examples for designers, as well as provide encouragement to clients.

The jury recognizes many healthy trends with these awards. There is a range of options and choices in housing - from small-scale (Ways Lane Residence) to large-scale (Prince Arthur Arch) projects, from low-rise (Sackville Infill Housing) to mid-rise (Twenty), from conventional unit plans and dimensions (Upper East Side) to open-plan loft units (Twenty). This variety provides a wide range of choices for individuals and non-disruptive options for the collective consciousness.

There is a commitment to excellence in the quality of open spaces in urban context, as evidenced by the University of Toronto Open Space Master Plan and the College Street Plan.

The student work is grappling with real-life urban issues, with a multi-layered consciousness.

The jury suggests that the City consider conducting the urban design awards program every two years, in order to allow a greater volume of new work to be assembled.
