Sidewalk Labs

Sidewalk Labs is a company created by Alphabet Inc., the parent company of Google, that focuses on developing innovative solutions for urban living. It aims to improve city infrastructure and services through technology, data, and design. One of its most notable projects involved a plan to transform a waterfront area in Toronto, Canada, into a smart, sustainable neighborhood with advanced features like sensor technology and eco-friendly buildings. Although the project faced various challenges and ultimately did not proceed, Sidewalk Labs continues to explore ways to enhance urban environments through smart design and technology.
