A new book, authored by Toronto-based FUSIONCORP DEVELOPMENTS INC.’s CEO and Co-Founder Nick Ainis, with Charlie M. Wordsworth, has come to the market.

BUILDING TORONTO’S SKYLINE traces the evolution of the city’s iconic residential towers from its humble beginnings in the late 19th century to today’s modern, high-rise buildings.

The book looks at the early low-rise apartments built to provide affordable housing for working-class families in the city’s rapidly growing urban areas.  It explores the rise of modern high-rise condos, which began in the mid-20th century as developers experimented with new materials and construction techniques.

Through detailed research and engaging storytelling in 10 chapters,  Ainis brings to life the people and events that shaped the city’s skyline. Along the way, the book delves into the social, cultural, and economic forces that have influenced the development of condos in Toronto and looks at how these buildings have come to define the city’s identity.  

Ainis recounts fascinating stories with richly illustrated with photographs.  He said, “Building Toronto’s Skyline is a must-read for anyone interested in Toronto’s history and its evolution to today modern city.”

BUILDING TORONTO’S SKYLINE is available through Amazon in print, Kindle, and audible editions.
