Can a single naïve urban planner change the direction of growth for an entire city? Maybe if he travels back in time to meet Jane Jacobs, he very well might have that opportunity. This is the tale of Jimmy MacDonald, who grows up overnight and finds himself in a very different Toronto than he thought he knew. What will he do?

The main body of this story is based on events that actually occurred, to the best of my ability to ascertain (minus the time travel—but who knows?). The book explores the planned Spadina Expressway, in Toronto. The story is meant to entertain urban planners who currently don’t have much work-related fiction to read. And it is a fun stab at alternate history. A good read for anyone.
