Waterfront Toronto will begin construction on a new section of water’s edge promenade at the Portland Slip in early May. The work follows repairs to the dockwall which were completed by the City of Toronto late last year. The new 8.4-metre wide granite promenade at the Portland Slip will help connect Queens Quay to Ireland Park, an often overlooked public space tucked behind the Canada Malting Silos.
Like the Water’s Edge Promenade between Canada’s Sugar Beach and Sherbourne Common, the promenade will feature a two-toned red and grey maple leaf mosaic pattern. A double row of native maple trees will line the promenade offering protection from winds and shade during the summer months. Expected to open this fall, the 123-metre stretch of promenade will begin at the lake and connect with the existing sidewalk just east of the Harbourfront Community Centre.
