The project, which is set to be completed by 2024, aims to create a vibrant public space that will serve as a hub for community events, art installations, and green spaces. The team will work closely with local residents and stakeholders to ensure the space meets the needs and desires of the community.
The Bentway is a 1.5-kilometre long public space that connects the waterfront with the city’s downtown. It is located between the Gardiner Expressway and the Don River. The park will feature a variety of recreational facilities, including a skate park, a playground, and a dog park.
The Bentway is a public space that runs along the city’s elevated highway. The event was part of a larger celebration of the Bentway’s transformation into a vibrant public space. The Bentway, which was once a barrier between the city and its waterfront, is now a thriving community hub. The event featured live music, art installations, and food trucks, showcasing the potential of the space.
The design will incorporate elements of the existing landscape, including the waterfront, and will be developed in phases. The first phase will focus on creating a pedestrian pathway and a small park, with the potential for future expansions.
Since its debut in 2018, The Bentway has welcomed over 1.4 million visitors to the area for its free programming.
