Ottawa is playing host this week to a major international urban planning conference — and its goal is figuring out how to build neighbourhoods where everything's within a 10-minute walk.
The city made the bid to host the International Making Cities Livable Conference to coincide with the opening year of the forthcoming light-rail line.
It's the first time in the conference's 55 years that it's been held in Canada.
