There are several improvement and beautification projects underway.
The Wood Street resurfacing and beautification project is set to begin in 2025: pre-construction notices to local residents went out on June
12th. Construction is underway on improvements to George Hislop Park, Norman Jewison Park and Alexander Street Parkette, and is scheduled for completion this fall.
The public spaces and parkettes around Yonge & Grosvenor will be officially named Clock Tower Trail to reflect the unique history and architecture of the area. Breadalbane Street will undergo streetscape improvements to make it greener and safer, linking it to the recently- opened Dr Lillian MacGregor Park near Bay & Wellesley. A big shout out and thanks goes to the Bay Cloverhill Community Association for their leadership and advocacy on this!
One of the recommendations brought up by residents during last year’s Participatory Budgeting process, the creation of an off-leash area in Barbara Hall Park, is now funded and will go ahead in the near future.

As your councillor, enhancing equitable access to recreation facilities has been a key priority. Just like you, I value the Moss Park Arena, our only indoor arena downtown, along with the vibrant outdoor Ice Rink in Regent Park.
The Access to Recreation Program has increased access to swimming lessons and facilities for local students at Winchester, Sprucecourt, Nelson Mandela, and Lord Dufferin schools.
