Wallace Immen writes about urban development and property issues for The Globe and Mail. He's also executive editor of the travel magazine The Cruisington  Times (cruisington.com).

Since 1972, he and his wife have lived in an 1870 home in the Cabbagetown Southwest area--the residential district pending addition to the Cabbagetown Heritage Conservation District. His work advocating for historic preservation and serving on community organizations including the Cabbagetown South Residents Association and the Cabbagetown HCD Advisory Committee has heightened his interest in researching Cabbagetown's unique history. He has taken photographs of every house in the district, which appear in the property search feature of the cabbagetownHCD.ca website.
