Ironic considering Galen Weston Jr. has been so critical of efforts to make #Toronto a more walkable city with more community spaces.

An excerpt and photograph from the linked article. The photograph is of Hilary and Galen Weston (Photographer: Nick Harvey/WireImage/Getty Images) the 2nd generation head of the Weston family, the richest family in Canada. The excerpted text reads:

"Weston and his wife, Hilary, hired the architects Andrés Duany and Elizabeth Plater-Zyberk, who pioneered the New Urbanism school of planning, to lay out the village in accordance with their ideas around walkable streets and community spaces. "
