Resumen de The development of the garden suburb in Toronto
In its early stages the industrial revolution, by providing labour for an unemployed agricultural class, gave to urban living the attraction of financial stability.

The growth of the garden suburb movement occurred at a time of increasing disenchantment with these consquences of the industrial revolution.
