Site work, environmental remediation and new construction of a mixed-use development in Toronto, Ontario. Conceptual plans call for the construction of a recreation facility; retail development; 1,900-seat theater / auditorium; and for site work for a playground / park / athletic field.

Re-purposing/redevelopment of the entire Ontario Place site (approx. 50 acres of public space) that will transform Toronto's waterfront. As part of the development, the park will be fully rehabilitated and remediated with new shoreline protection features, flood mitigation measures and soil remediation work to ensure Ontario Place remains a safe destination for future generations. Highlights are as follows: -A new entrance that will serve as a gathering and transit hub, connecting visitors to the new Exhibition Station on the Ontario Line, lakeside walking, cycle paths and onsite parking. -A reimagined Brigantine Cove featuring an urban beach, boardwalks and children's playgrounds, including a multi-level interactive treehouse and turtle-shaped play structures. -New canoe and kayak launch sites and natural stone lookout points throughout the park will provide sunset views across Lake Ontario. -The Ontario Place marina will become a vibrant hub, with open-air pavilions, boardwalks and spaces for future programming and amenities. -A new forum space at the park's centre will provide ample space for outdoor markets and festivals and showcase a one-acre splash fountain, with a core shaped like Ontario's iconic trillium. -An up to 3,400 sq ft Indigenous Cultural Pavilion on the East Island, offering a dedicated space for community gatherings, workshops and other learning programs.
