Newly emerging plans for Ontario Place include a five-level subterranean parking lot for more than 2,000 vehicles and the need to chop down more than 800 trees to make way for a private spa complex.
to create what a “world-class, year-round destination” on the 155-acre site of the waterfront amusement park, which opened in 1971 and was shuttered in 2012.
While that would be for paying customers only, Ontario Place would get 12 acres of new public space including parkland, gathering places and a downtown beach. Mayor John Tory, answering questions after an unrelated news conference, acknowledged concerns over the parking structure and said such issues are why it’s important that city staff and city council are getting a chance to review the plans.“I think that will include whether or not a 2,000-car parking garage is something that’s necessary or desirable,” the mayor said.
The total number of trees required to be felled during redevelopment is unknown, because plans are still developing, states an arborist’s report, but “100 per cent of trees within the Therme area will be potentially impacted.”
