Canada Square Public Consultation June 7

Mark your calendars: Wednesday, June 7, from 6 to 8 PM.

As you already know, a huge development is planned at Canada Square – the land around and including the old bus barn site at the southwest corner of Yonge and Eglinton. Since our last public meeting in November, Toronto has been refining its plan for this ambitious project. The last meeting raised many issues:

·      The nature and feel of the open square

·      The future uses of the two present towers

·      The virtue of adding a park atop the subway trench

·      The debated presence of a school

·      The future use, animation, and administration of the public indoor spaces, including day care, meeting spaces, an art gallery, or a theatre.

This next meeting will help us residents track the evolution of the design and to volunteer our reactions and proposals.

We have to register to log on at this link. That opens a page with a table of meetings. Scroll to “2180-2210 Yonge Street, 15 Eglinton Avenue West, 20 and 46 Berwick” and a planner named David Driedger. You may find this on the front page. If not, click onto a second page.

You can also go straight to the sign-up page.

We look forward to seeing and hearing you there (remotely).
