Brian Crombie Radio Hour - Epi 1435 - Midrise Building with Chris Spoke

Tonight on The Brian Crombie Hour, Brian interviews Chris Spoke. Chris is a leading voice in Toronto’s housing debate and a passionate advocate for midrise development as a solution to the city's growing affordability crisis. As the founder of August, a firm focused on digital solutions for real estate and urban planning, he combines innovation with a deep understanding of policy and design. Chris champions midrise buildings—typically 4 to 8 storeys—as the missing middle housing Toronto desperately needs. These buildings offer a gentle density that fits seamlessly into existing neighbourhoods while increasing housing supply in walkable, transit-connected areas.
