Down town Toronto looks more like New York but Etobicoke, North York and Scarborough are mostly suburb and looks nothing like New York.
Why did city planners in Etobicoke, North York and Scarborough not make it more urban.

Why did city planners not make Etobicoke, North York and Scarborough more urban like and ban houses and built mid rise apartments or row houses?
Here is urban suburb look like in the UK
They could of made Etobicoke, North York and Scarborough look like that.
Interesting thing is Toronto has a density like New York and down town Toronto looks like New York but most of Toronto is one big suburb with Etobicoke, North York and Scarborough being mostly a suburb with houses and high rise apartments here and there. There just way to many houses and just not urban look at all.
Keep in mind a million dollars will buy you a condo in the city and million dollars a small house in the suburb. The real state cost is very high.
