Public realm design

Building on a legacy of innovation, culture and recreation, the latest reimagination of Ontario Place presents exciting new opportunities for generations of visitors to relax, explore, and create lasting memories in this iconic destination.

The three anchor tenants will provide a variety of family friendly uses and activities – from a water and wellness facility to live music to an outdoor adventure park – all connected by a high-quality public realm including Trillium Park and expanded with new waterfront parks, trails and open spaces that are open to all and free to use. 

The design of the public realm will be completed in three phases – each corresponding to a milestone in the Class EA process and informed by input gathered through consultation.

1.
Establish the vision

2.
Explore design options

3.
Select the preferred design

The map shows where publicly accessible lands are proposed to be located on the tenant lands, and how they relate to and integrate with the government-led public realm and redevelopment lands.
