This podcast explores the city of Richmond Hill, Ontario through the lens of “Strong Towns” principles, focusing on how urban design and development decisions shape everyday life. It examines how neighborhoods can evolve into more walkable, connected, and financially resilient places, rather than relying on car-dependent sprawl and costly infrastructure expansion. Inspired by the ideas of Strong Towns, each episode looks at practical ways Richmond Hill can grow in a more sustainable and human-centered direction. Topics include strengthening local businesses, improving public spaces, encouraging mixed-use neighborhoods, and fostering community interaction. The podcast ultimately invites listeners to rethink what makes a “successful” city and how small, incremental changes can lead to stronger, more livable communities over time. fa 2026 Saeed Vahid, Strong Richmond Hill https://strongrh.ca/podcast http://strongrh.ca/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/myRH_Podcast-Logo800x800.jpg https://strongrh.ca/podcast This podcast explores the city of Richmond Hill, Ontario through the lens of “Strong Towns” principles, focusing on how urban design and development decisions shape everyday life.
