Does anyone know if this revitalization will extend out to Yonge between Aura and College Park? It's quite an eyesore and with thousands of people walking past it daily it would have been nice to have an animated spot with trees, benches and/or food carts and seating.
 
It will.

Does anyone know if that sunken outdoor area (metro level) was designed with the intention that it be what it currently is? It's always been so awkward and barren with poor connections to the surrounding park. Was it designed for some purpose or plan that never came to be?
 
At the June City Council meeting, Council accepted a $250,000 donation from the Downtown Yonge BIA towards the cost of building the skating trail in the park! Your shopping dollars in action!

Better the Tourists' shopping dollars,... than my tax dollars. ;p
 
City Council has voted to fund the rebuild here with $2.5 million more from the City's Parks capital budget, essentially to pay for the ice skating trail which wasn't initially contemplated as part of the plan.
