The global COVID-19 pandemic is having far-reaching effects in Toronto, including major impacts to what have been booming real estate and building industries. Many jobs and most events are currently suspended, postponed, or affected in other ways, though UrbanToronto is still operating at full strength with our team working remotely. As a means to keep the public in the loop about the shutdowns, we'll be sharing information and status updates from around the industry on a regular basis.
In today's report: City of Toronto issues inaugural social bond—a first in Canada’s public sector, Cadillac Fairview launches new shopping app to aid retail recovery, and more news from the COVID-19 front.
