  • Exhibition Place Master Plan – Phase 1 Proposals Report
    Acknowledgments The site of Exhibition Place has had a long tradition as a gathering place. Given its location on the water, these lands would have attracted Indigenous populations before recorded history. We acknowledge that the land occupied by Exhibition Place is the traditional territory of many nations including the Mississaugas of the Credit, the Anishnabeg, the Chippewa, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples and is now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Metis peoples. We also acknowledge that Toronto is covered by Treaty 13 with the Mississaugas of the Credit, and the Williams Treaties signed with multiple Mississaugas and Chippewa bands. Figure 1.

  • Activeto Next Steps for 2021: Supplementary Report
    REPORT FOR ACTION ActiveTO Next Steps for 2021: Supplementary Report Date: April 6, 2021 To: City Council From: General Manager, Transportation Services Wards: Ward(s) affected or All SUMMARY Throughout 2020, the City of Toronto's Transportation Services Division introduced a variety of COVID-19 response programs in consultation with the Medical Officer of Health to accommodate the need for residents to be outside of their homes while physical distancing. These programs, including ActiveTO, transformed Toronto's streets to support the city during the first summer of the pandemic. ActiveTO was composed of three main programs; Major Road Closures, Quiet Streets and Cycling Network Expansion. This set of programs enabled the largest expansion of cycling infrastructure in the City's history and supported thousands of safe cycling and walking trips to essential services and recreation for mental and physical health. On March 23, 2021, Infrastructure and Environment Committee (IEC) endorsed the recommendations of IE 20.12 ActiveTO - Lessons Learned from 2020 and Next Steps for 2021, and requested that (1) the General Manager, Transportation Services report directly to the April 7 and 8, 2021 City Council meeting on the following: a. opportunities to accommodate Lake Shore Boulevard West ActiveTO partial or full closures on select weekends or consider alternate ActiveTO installations, similar to Bayview Avenue; b. opportunities for additional ActiveTO locations, including on the Exhibition Place grounds; and c. opportunities to accelerate traffic-calming in local neighbourhoods through the refocused efforts mentioned in the report, and creating enhanced Quiet Streets, based on lessons learned in 2020, as well as opportunities for a Quiet Neighbourhoods approach where appropriate.

  • Gardiner Lake Shore Corridor Technical Report
    TECHNICAL BRIEFING Gardiner/Lake Shore Corridor Gardiner/Lake Shore Corridor Study Team for the Toronto Waterfront Revitalization Corporation July 15, 2004 July 15, 2004 Toronto Waterfront Revitalization Corporation Attn: Mr. Marc Hewitt, Vice President, Planning Dear Mr. Hewitt: We are pleased to forward to you the results of our comprehensive review of the Gardiner/Lake Shore Corridor. Since its completion in 1966, the impact of the elevated Gardiner Expressway on the quality of the city has been a matter of concern. As Toronto, like all waterfront cities, finds its future well-being strongly dependent on realizing the potential of its greatest natural asset, addressing this corridor takes on increasing significance. Certainly, a resolution to the challenges posed by the current design of the corridor is fundamental to waterfront revitalization. Action is a matter of some urgency. Every year, significant new impediments to economic solutions to the redesign of the corridor, in the form of new development projects, are planned or constructed. These new projects increasingly foreclose solutions and implementation strategies to the corridor itself. New York, Boston and San Francisco are only a few of several premier world cities which have addressed the problem of elevated expressway systems. In each case, removing such systems has proven an economic catalyst for revitalization. The presentation of such cities is now clearly understood to be an essential aspect of economic development. Toronto as Canada’s Principal World City, cannot afford inaction. The Gardiner/Lake Shore Corridor Study Group assembled to explore this matter was comprised of some of Canada’s most renowned urban designers, transportation consultants, experts in modeling and simulation, and cost and implementation consultants; as well as world experts experienced in comparable projects.
