The high-tech Toronto neighborhood from Google's parent company will include environmentally friendly timber buildings

Constructing large buildings out of timber still has significant challenges.

Sidewalk Labs' website breaks down its plans into five different "innovations," including mobility and digital innovation, and each has an accompanying vision. The vision foris described as "Sustainable buildings that can be constructed and adapted far more quickly, and a new set of financial and design tools that help improve affordability and expand options for all households," all of which will apparently be achieved through mass timber.

To explore the design potential of timber, Sidewalk Labs worked with engineers, architects, and environmental designers to create a digital proto-model.Sidewalk Labs says that mass timber is "easier to manufacture and better for the environment than concrete or steel, yet just as strong and fire-resistant."Construction with a timber exoskeleton will also leave more available floor space, according to Sidewalk Labs' models.
