Stilts Are Cool, but You Could Have Used Floors
Colleges around Toronto are running out of room so quickly, says an article in The Toronto Star, that “they may even — in a rare show of team spirit — form a consortium to run a new sort of feeder university.”
The newspaper notes that Toronto’s colleges are so strapped for space that they are holding enrollment steady despite rising numbers of applications, and that they plan to add campuses, even though notions of new campuses aren’t always popular.
The Ontario College of Art and Design, for example, has almost outgrown its three-year-old building, which is on stilts. The structure was an award winner of sorts in a Chronicle architecture supplement.
