Types of Land Uses
• What colour was most prominent on the previous slide?
• The land uses do not all appear evenly.
Types of Land Uses
• Specific land uses can be incredibly varied. In Canada, harsh climates have led to indoor shopping malls being built.
• And at that, those indoor malls have taken on extraordinary shapes and sizes!
Types of Land Uses
• As cities grow, they expand onto surrounding rural land, contributing to the loss of productive farmland and natural habitats.
Types of Land Uses
• The Golden Horseshoe Greenbelt has been established to protect land from urban development in southern Ontario.
The Evolution of a City
Stage Era Expansion
Stage 1
Walking & Horse Era
(1800-1890)
30 min. walking radius
Stage 245 min. walking radius (increased
due to industrial pressures)
Stage 3Omnibus Lines (horse-drawn rail car
lines in some directions; this is the first public transit system)
Stage 4 Trackside Suburbs (commuters)
Stage 5Street Car Era
(1890-1920)Street Car Lines (faster movement
along rails = further)
Stage 6Car Era
(1920-1950)
30-45 min. driving radius
Stage 730-45 min. driving radius along
expressways (higher speeds = further in some directions)

• As you add each stage of the evolution to your diagram, neatly label the reason for the expansion. Your final diagram will look like this but with labels
