We turned this under-utilized and run-down public space into a magnificent skate trail for residents to enjoy. After community consultations and extensive renovations, an upgraded and revitalized park has re-opened to the public. The nearly $8 million in park upgrades includes improved access from Yonge Steet, College Street, Bay Street, and Gerrard Street; a new playground, a skate trail and skating facility, and major landscaping improvements with plantings and trees.
