Spacing Radio 020 is on the air!

On this episode of Spacing Radio producer Mieke Andersen takes you on a walk with Cindy Rozeboom through the east end of Toronto, along the Danforth, to explore the potential of empty storefronts. In other cities, street food is a major component of public life, but in Toronto food vendors don't seem to get any respect from city hall, BIAs, and urban designers — reporter Pattie Phillips talks to Marianne Moroney of Toronto's Street Food Vendors Association. The release of the new book "Rediscovering the Wealth of Places" examines cultural mapping and how it applies to cities. Reporter Sarah Bridge talks to the book's author, Greg Baeker, about how we can all learn to appreciate and re-imagine local cultural assets. This episode's musical guest is Toronto-based Heartbeat Hotel.
