Urban Noise: Few city building considerations are more consequential, neglected, and omni-present than acoustics. The sound of the city surrounds us, often noticed at the level of annoyance - or noise that demands expensive and impractical remedy. But it doesn't have to be this way.
Join ULI Toronto as we survey the broad realm of urban acoustics from construction to competing land uses to understand why it is better to adopt design solutions than remediate design failures, as we explore the stricter new building codes intended to enforce better buildings.
