Design Finalists: Harbourfront Parks and Open Space System Phase I
The Phase I development of the Harbourfront Parks and Opens Space system will focus on two key parcels of parkland, that will serve to connect Harbourfront Centre with the Spadina Quay Wetland and Toronto's Music Garden. The first phase sites, Maple Leaf Quay West and Maple Leaf Quay East, are south of Queen's Quay Boulevard and measure approximately 1.7 hectares (4.2 acres). Construction and development is expected to start in 2004 with completion scheduled for 2005. The cost of implementing the Phase I park development is expected to be $7.5 million.
