The Toronto Waterfront Revitalization Corporation is hosting three events along the Waterfront in the next few weeks. They are open to all and encourage public participation – and one offers a free cruise!
1. Don Mouth Site Walk and Boat Cruise – October 14th, 1:00 – 4:30 pm
Meet at the parkette at the northwest corner of Don Roadway and Villiers Street. Parking is available at 95 Commissioners Street.
Join us at the mouth of the Don River on Saturday, October 14, 2006 to enjoy an interpretive site walk and boat cruise aboard the beautiful Island Princess, as part of our ongoing consultation in support of the Don Mouth Naturalization Project.
This FREE event will highlight many of the land and water-based issues that will be addressed when considering alternatives for a new mouth for the Don River. Representatives from several agencies and organizations will be on hand to discuss the rise of the new Don and to answer your questions. This event supports the TWRC’s mandate to renew and revitalize Toronto’s waterfront.
2. TWRC Annual General Meeting – November 2, 6:30 – 9:00 pm
Glenn Gould Studio, CBC Building, 250 Front Street West
The meeting will feature presentations on waterfront public realm projects by the following three leading landscape architects:
Claude Cormier, Claude Cormier Architects
Michael Van Valkenburgh, Michael Van Valkenburgh Associates
Adriaan Geuze, West 8
3. Cherry Beach Community Tree Planting Event – October 22, 10:00 am – 12:00 pm
Meet just inside the main entrance to the park, at the foot of Cherry Street. Planting will be in the west end of the park.
We’ll be planting native trees and shrubs in partnership with Evergreen, the Toronto Bay Initiative and Toronto Parks, Forestry and Recreation
Each of these should be of great interest to anyone keeping track of the different waterfront revitalization projects the corporation is undertaking.
