An emphasis on creating a balanced mixed-use development for the public use:
community centre
residential housing units
commercial retail space
park space
hygiene centre
bike parking
splash pad
winter warmth hub
elevated outdoor stage
and more

This was a conceptual project, with no further next steps. Bloor and Dovercourt will not be demolished and replaced with this highly social-purpose yet ambitious project. We hope to pursue pieces of these dreams in future projects.
