HIGH DENSITY: FINCH, PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION HUB
A series of photographs complied to create an animated documentation of people descending from a bus intended to give an idea of the traffic flow and density.
A recording of the typical sounds you will encounter on your way to the Finch bus terminal. Imagine yourself walking down the street towards Finch station, past the buses, entering the terminal and finally into the subway system. The abundance of sound is directly related to the high density of people and vehicles. When stepping off a quiet bus, it is not unusual to feel bombarded with these sounds and slightly unsafe.
NIGHT AND DAY: THE CONTRAST IN OLD KOREA TOWN
In the older part of the Yonge and Finch area, there are several Korean bars, eateries, hair salons and other commercial spaces scattered about. This area appears to be unkept but comes to life at night; it becomes a popular place for people to eat and socialize.

PARKING: CREATING A CEMENT WASTELAND
Above ground parking lots take up almost 20% of the area and are usually, in themselves relatively large. There is poor supervision, thus, when evening comes these lots become potential criminal zones.

DEAD SPACE: ON YONGE STREET?There is an abundance of dead space in the area. This makes the area look disorganized and incomplete. High-end Condominiums juxtaposed with garbage filled lots is not uncommon.
