As our vision of re-making Toronto's waterfront unfolds over the next ten years, it will be guided by a number of principles. These principles will ensure that our Toronto waterfront:
|
- is an environmentally-friendly area that nurtures wildlife, restores and creates natural habitats, and provides water that is clean and healthy;
- is easy to get to and easy to get around by public transit, ferry, water taxi, bicycle and foot;
- restores the link between the city and its lake across its 46 kilometres;
- is known for its distinctive beauty, blending green lands, public places, historical sites, commercial and recreation facilities, residential areas and public art;
- offers a wide variety of activities and facilities that complement each other and work together;
- boosts Toronto's tourism infrastructure and its reputation as a tourist destination;
- sparks greater economic development, attracting new investment and creating jobs;
- is financially viable; and
- involves a high level of public participation in making decisions.
