Sharing the Street– Ookwemin Street Interactive Workshop

Join us on Sunday, November 22 for Sharing the Street, an interactive, in-person workshop where you can experience a life-sized, temporary mock-up of part of the planned Ookwemin Street, part of the new neighbourhood we’re building on Toronto’s waterfront.  

Plans and drawings can only show so much. This workshop is an opportunity to step into the design at full scale, learn from Waterfront Toronto and the design team about key street elements and design decisions, and share feedback on what works and what could be improved. 

During the workshop, participants will be able to: 

• Walk, roll or move through a full-scale mock-up of the street. 
• Experience features such as seating and plantings, and consider the street from the perspective of pedestrians, cyclists, drivers and other users. 
• Speak directly with the design team about design decisions and ask questions. 
• Share ideas about how the street can work for everyone who will live, work, shop and spend time on Ookwemin Minising. 

Your feedback will help inform the ongoing detailed design of Ookwemin Street.
