A new 5,300 m2 (1.3 acres) park is coming to 170 Queens Wharf Rd. in the CityPlace neighbourhood, east of the Bathurst Street Bridge, as a result of a subdivision development project. The park design, created through extensive community engagement from 2012 to 2015, was finalized in 2018 to celebrate Fort York’s heritage. It uniquely references the circa 1800 landscape, including the Lake Ontario shoreline and Garrison Creek.
