York Quay Neighborhood Association
Harbourfront, Toronto, Ontario
Reports and Documents
News from YQNA's Planning and Development Committee:
Our city planner Al Rezoski has been working diligently on improving the pedestrian crossings along York Street. He understands that we take our life in our hands crossing the many lanes of Lake Shore Boulevard, and has worked to tame it by eliminating some turn lanes and imposing a speed limit.
Al allowed us to post his plans (click here).. You will see the narrower intersections with much better pedestrian crossings. Rows of trees and boxes with greenery will be planted to remove the desolate current look, and large stripes will be painted for the crossings. Al would like to change the character of Lake Shore to be more like other city streets. That would be a welcome change.
York Street Promenade-Update
City councillors in our Community Council recently voted in favour of a more attractive and pedestrian-friendly York Street. Some of the dangerous turn lanes at Lake Shore Boulevard will be eliminated to create wide and straight crossings.
Have a look at these drawings from our city planners. York Street will be the home for thousands of people when all the super-tall condo towers are completed.
