parks and public realm projects

Our new blue edge redefines public space in Toronto with the creation of a number of new, iconic parks and public spaces.

Twenty-five percent of the waterfront revitalization area is reserved for parks and open spaces.

We are working to design and build parks that further connect Toronto to its lakefront and create a front door to new and emerging waterfront communities.

Parks are critical to the development of new neighbourhoods and we design communities so that parks and public spaces are their spines. We are investing a significant portion of our government funding to build parks and public spaces in the first phase of revitalization.

Since 2004, Waterfront Toronto has opened 17 new parks or improved public spaces.
