Of course the aesthetics were a priority for the Berczy project group, the designers, the Councillor and the Parks staff BUT the City (under Ford) moved parks garbage collection to Solid Waste Management and they have 'standards' and these are what they are! They want to be able to pick up bins from the street (if possible) using their standard trucks. The battle is certainly not over and it applies to many parks and public spaces. Write YOUR councillor, the mayor and ???Why was this not a consideration? This city always seems to mess up on the small details. The waste bins should be put in an attractive shed or covered in some way. After spending all this money, you would think that the aesthetics of this park would be a priority!
