Dockwall falling down

 

The dock wall on Ward's Island at the Eastern Gap is in bad shape. Part of it fell down sometime in February, 2023. Ausma Malik, Ward 10 Councillor, has asked Ports Toronto for a plan to fix it. We don't know if Ports Toronto will agree to do so. The problem is, it's never been clear which government agency is responsible for this ancient bit of concrete, built we think in the 19th Century. We hope this gets sorted out soon! It's a safety hazard. Many dock walls and breakwaters around the Harbour are falling down due to a similar lack of clarity as to who's in charge.

Waterfront Walk April 22

Many thanks to David Stonehouse of the Waterfront Secretariat for leading a great a walk of Corktown Common, Oowemin Minesing, and along the water's edge promenade to Sugar Beach. We were thrilled to have a spontaneous appearance from Jed Kilbourn, Director Development Planning for Waterfront Toronto. Both have unmatched knowledge of Toronto's amazing waterfront revitalization. It was a beautiful night for a walk, and we learned a lot.
