Laneway coLabs

Community-led laneway revitalization in Toronto.

Laneway coLabs is a program by The Laneway Project that brings neighbours together to reimagine and activate their local laneways. Through a collaborative design process, communities work with artists and facilitators to create shared spaces that reflect local needs, stories, and creativity.

What is Laneway coLabs?

Laneway coLabs is built around co-design. Each project works closely with residents over a defined period to shape improvements, including murals, greenery, lighting, and small-scale interventions. The result is a laneway that feels safer, more welcoming, and more connected to the people who use it every day.

Projects are time-bound, community-led, and designed to support long-term care and stewardship after installation.
