Long before UrbanToronto's front page started running news in 2010, our Forum was well established as a go-to source for Toronto's most up-to-date and in-depth development industry discussions. Now boasting almost 27,000 members, the growing Forum continues to be a central part of the UT community, with the popular 'Buildings' and 'Transportation & Infrastructure' sections offering detailed and regularly updated conversations about transit, construction, and future development.
There's a lot more to the Forum though, with a wealth of conversations about all things urban, whether they involve construction cranes or coffee culture. Our 'Urban Life' discussions include a wide range of threads about everyday city living, including conversations about Toronto's best burgers, coffee shops, and grocery stores. Meanwhile, for fine-grained conversations focusing on the city's many distinct locales, our 'Neighbourhood Node' threads provide an opportunity for a look at what's going in the community.

Curious about the new cafe or brewpub that's opening, or about how street closures are going to effect traffic, or whether that new parkette is on its way? Want updates about community meetings or new store openings? That's where the 'Neighbourhood Node' comes in, with over 140 discussions about local living and goings-on. Want to keep up with what's going on in the Distillery, Church & Wellesley, Bloordale, St. Clair West, Regent Park, St. Lawrence Market, or Riverdale? Our Forum is the place to go. And if your neighbourhood isn't represented, UT members can go ahead and start a new thread. You might even meet some neighbours.
