"One Millionth Tower" at the Gladstone Hotel

On December 6, 2011 the NFB documentary One Millionth Tower  launched at Toronto's Gladstone Hotel with a screening and discussion. "Global Suburbanisms" principal investigator, Roger Keil, participated in a panel discussion about how we can build a better city at the event, along with highrise residents, ERA architects, representatives from the United Way, City of Toronto, the NFB and the Mozilla Foundation who all worked together to create the world’s first open-source documentary, One Millionth Tower.

How can we reimagine these buildings as tremendous assets to the city overall
and to the many thousands of people who live in them?

A new NFB HIGHRISE documentary, One Millionth Tower,
explores the power of imagination — and collaboration — to change spaces and minds.

Meet the highrise residents, ERA architects, representatives from the United Way, City of Toronto,
the NFB and the Mozilla Foundation who all worked together
to create the world’s first open-source documentary, One Millionth Tower.
