That would certainly make the waterfront more cohesive from a pedestrian point of view. Even if it's not currently in the plans I would hope to see it come soon after everything is complete over there.

2055?

2055?

Just in time for your 50 years of retirement anniversary party!

I look forward to it now.

The Docks:
It was looking like a potential Darwin nomination but help arrived.
I wonder what the future holds for this property? If the airport ever closed, their property value would skyrocket. One of the best views of the city without taking a boat.

A couple shots from today.
This is work being done in the area of the small section of new river bed between the Keating Channel and Villiers St.

And continuing work near Commissioners St.

That concrete structure is a carp gate. It’s kind of like the entry for a roller coaster. Except instead of ‘you must be this tall to ride’, it’s ‘you must be this small to enter this awesome wetland.’

Thanks @DSC for posting the above, this is my 'enhanced/zoomed' version so we can get a bit of a better look at the wetland:

That's definitely some wet land.

It's not a wetland until Ducks Unlimited members show up for some duck hunting.

Hi everyone,
I showed a high school science teacher (biology, ecology, chemistry, environment) some of the progress on Port Lands recently. Immediate reaction was ""I'd like some info on the project and may get my students to study this"". Does anyone have a suggestion on where to look for or if there is a communication package geared to students for this?
Much appreciated. Thanks.

Contact Waterfront Toronto and/or Toronto Regional Conversation Authority - they might even have site tours. Also look up the Environmental Assessment Report for the project. There are also some ecology-focused videos on the WT Youtube page.
