What once was a meek industrial area is now a stunning 1.5 hectare waterfront park along Lake Ontario. The park’s design combines elements of concrete, granite, wood, water and wide open green space, in a continuous flow throughout. Park features include a dynamic playground area with rubber, sand and pebble play surfaces, a large free-form ice skating rink that also performs as a splash pad in the summer months, a modern pavilion housing washrooms, a café and hidden
mechanical systems and a stunning water feature system. It is this fantastic water feature that boasts some of the City’s best performances with the material of choice –
concrete. Taking the form of an urban structure and also that of public art, the water feature system is actually a vital part of the entire neighbourhoods storm water management system.
