Tim Bristow

Tim Bristow spent the first decade of his professional life as an academic librarian at York University which gave him a knack for research on obscure topics and an undying love for taxonomy. A growing interest in the social and cultural dimensions of urban change led him to pursue a Master’s of Planning at the University of Toronto focused on the aesthetics of retail gentrification.

Most recently Tim has been working towards a PhD in cultural geography at U of T examining the ways creative entrepreneurs, lifestyle migrants, and other urban tastemakers are transforming the look and feel of Prince Edward County.
