Parks in Action is a multidisciplinary design-research initiative that spans multiple years and institutions. The project emphasizes the importance of suburban parks, open spaces, and the public realm in Toronto’s climate adaptation and mitigation efforts, focusing on air pollution, the urban heat island effect, andflooding.1 A key objective is to assess and quantify the social and environmental value of public and private open spaces inToronto’s inner suburbs, particularly the “tower in the park”neighborhoods at an urban scale, as well as to offer design-based solutions in form of “Community Climate Action Hubs” on a smaller park scale.
