It’s no secret that the Don River has seen better days. What used to be a sparkling habitat for many different animals and fish has become a dirty and polluted channel funneling at an un-natural 90 degree angle into Lake Ontario.

There is no shortage of interest in and support for reviving the Don, and next Saturday, March 29th, the Toronto and Region Conservation Authority (on behalf of Waterfront Toronto) is hosting a Public Presentation, Discussion, and Drop-In on the progress of the Don Mouth Naturalization and Port Lands Flood Protection Project. The session will also include an update on how the winning design for last year’s Lower Donlands Design Competition (awarded to Michael Van Valkenburgh and Associates) will be integrated with the Environmental Assessment for the area.

Rise of the New Don: Saturday, March 29, 10:00 am – 3:00 pm at St. Lawrence Hall (157 King Street East).

Presentation & Discussion at 11:00 am.
