out a vision for culture in Ontario. This strategy recognizes a
broad interpretation of culture, and puts forward four goals:
promote cultural engagement and inclusion, strengthen culture in
communities, fuel the creative economy, and promote the value
of the arts.
Another key Provincial priority is its Innovation Agenda, focused
on seizing global opportunities and building on the strengths of

1.3 The Toronto Market
A modern, connected and diverse global city, Toronto’s real
estate market is among the most attractive and stable in the
world. Toronto has established itself as a socially and
economically diverse global city and consistently ranks high
on global competitiveness, innovation and quality of life. The
city’s robust economy is principally fueled by its financial and
professional services sector and, increasingly, information
technology.
With a population of 2.8 million residents, Toronto is the
largest city in Canada. The wider-region is known as the
Greater Toronto Area (GTA) and supports a population of
more than 6.4 million residents. The GTA is one of North
America’s fastest growing regions and is the commercial,
distribution, financial and economic centre for Canada. The
region generates approximately one-fifth of Canada's GDP
and is home to 40% of all business headquarters in Canada.
.
An Established Centre for Innovation and Technology
The bustling financial district, located less than four kilometers from Ontario
Place, is home to the top five Canadian banks as well as the emerging start-up
and multinational FinTech communities. The Toronto region is Canada’s
largest technology hub and the third largest in North America, behind only
Silicon Valley and New York City. Toronto boasts a wealth of creative talent
with 25% of the country’s creative industry jobs located in the city. In 2011,
Toronto’s cultural economy contributed approximately $11.3 billion to the
city’s Gross Domestic Product. The local talent pool and presence of leading
post-secondary institutions have made Toronto an emerging centre for
innovation both at home and in global markets.
Vibrant Downtown and Waterfront
The last twenty years have seen a vast transformation as Toronto’s downtown
has evolved from a predominantly business centre to a dense, vibrant, mixed-
use area with a full complement of office, residential, retail and recreational
opportunities. Much of the recent growth in the downtown is occurring along
Toronto’s waterfront. Downtown is the most prominent location for
development activity, comprising of approximately 38% of all residential
projects in the City of Toronto's development pipeline and 46% of the
proposed non-residential projects, respectively.

Diversity as a Strength
Toronto is one of the most multicultural cities in the world.
Half of Toronto’s population was born outside of Canada, and
over 140 different languages and dialects are spoken in the
city. Four in every ten newcomers to Canada settle in the
GTA.
Toronto boasts an enviable quality of life and standard of
living. Consistently ranked as one of the top cities in the world
for quality of life, Toronto is known for its many unique
neighbourhoods, vibrant commercial areas, expansive park
system, and bustling downtown core.
A Sophisticated Tourism Offering
Toronto has an established offering of tourism and entertainment services,
with the biggest attractions in the downtown located within four kilometers of
Ontario Place. Such attractions include the CN Tower, Ripley’s Aquarium
Toronto, the NHL Hockey Hall of Fame, Old Fort York historic site, Yonge-
Dundas Square and the Toronto Eaton Centre. The city is home to more than
200 professional performing arts organizations, internationally-recognized
symphony, ballet and opera companies, hundreds of cultural attractions, live
performance theatres and countless galleries and museums.
A Cultural Destination
Toronto welcomes over 40 million visitors annually, leveraging its public and
private sector infrastructure to offer a diverse range of attractions and events
for both the local community and tourists to enjoy. Such initiatives include the
Toronto International Film Festival, Nuit Blanche, the Honda Indy, Toronto
Caribbean Carnival, the Canadian International Auto Show and the annual
Luminato Festival which transforms theatres, parks and public spaces across
the city to create a home for artists to play, share and create.
Toronto ranks as North America’s third-largest music market with over 500
places to enjoy live music, including the Budweiser Stage, located at Ontario
Place.

2.1 A Phased Revitalization Strategy for Ontario Place
Through a phased program of revitalization, the Province has invested in upgrades to the property. Most
recently, the following projects have been completed at Ontario Place:
• Trillium Park: In June 2013, the Province announced the first step of revitalization with a new urban
park at the eastern edge of Ontario Place overlooking the city’s growing skyline. Opened in June
2017, Trillium Park adds 7.5 acres of new parkland to Toronto’s waterfront. It has transformed what
used to be an asphalt parking lot into new green space that celebrates the natural and cultural legacy
of Ontario Place.
• Waterfront Trail: In June 2017, the new William G. Davis Trail added 1.3 kilometers of trail to the
East Island of Ontario Place, linking into the Pan Am Path and Trans Canada Trail. On the West
Island, pathways are to be renewed and fully connected into the broader waterfront circulation
system for pedestrians and cyclists.
• New Programming and Events: In 2017, Canada and the Province of Ontario are both
celebrating their 150th anniversary. Festivities are already underway and many more are planned.
In Toronto, many of these events will be on the waterfront, including at Ontario Place. Throughout
the year, there will be opportunities for the public to experience Ontario Place in a new way that
helps build excitement for its future.

3.0 The Ontario Place Property
Ontario Place was constructed as a network of three islands connected
by iconic buildings and landscapes. The 155 acre property includes
83.5 acres of open water plus the landforms of the East Island, West
Island, Centre Island and mainland. The island complex is linked to the
mainland by four pedestrian and two vehicular bridges that deliver
visitors to a parking area and beyond to Toronto’s premier waterfront
boulevard – Lake Shore Boulevard West.
The 25 acre East Island, formerly the main waterpark area, offers a mix
of soft and hard landscapes. This area is frequently used to host
cultural and commercial events. In addition, this area contains the
administrative building for Ontario Place Corporation (OPC), servicing
yards and the recently opened 7.5 acre Trillium Park.
The nine acre Centre Island is home the 16,000 seat capacity
Budweiser Stage, operated by Live Nation Entertainment. Hosting
more than 50 music events annually, this is an important cultural
destination in the city and one of the most successful outdoor
amphitheaters in the world by ticket sales.
At the heart of Ontario Place and bridging the East and the West
island areas is a cluster of iconic structures, including a 240 slip
marina and a complex of five interconnected pods suspended
above a fresh-water lagoon, with each pod providing more than
8,000 square feet of flexible space.
Connected to the elevated pod complex is the Cinesphere, a
triodetic dome that contains the world’s first ever permanent IMAX
cinema (615 seat capacity). The Cinesphere is in the process of
being upgraded with the latest IMAX digital technology.
The mainland of Ontario Place provides parking for more than
1200 vehicles, as well as a ticketing office and security building.

was completed in 2016 and a Phase 2 study is currently underway.
Expected to conclude in 2017, Phase 2 will identify a preferred
augmentation of the waterfront network, related budget
requirements and an implementation strategy.
SmartTrack: The Mayor of Toronto has introduced ‘SmartTrack’ – a
regional transit plan involving 22 stations across the Greater Toronto
Area. Smart Track utilizes existing rail infrastructure, augmented by some
new investment. As part of this plan, a new station is proposed at Liberty
Village. This station will be the closest Smart Track station serving Ontario
Place, approximately 1.2 km away.
Additional Streetcar Services: The #514 streetcar was brought into
operation in 2016 and connects Exhibition Place to Toronto's Financial
District and central rail terminal, Union Station, and beyond to the West
Don Lands neighbourhood.
Parking: There are approximately 1,270 surface parking spaces serving
Ontario Place. Parking is shared by all users. An additional 5,150 surface
parking spaces and 1,300 underground spaces are available at Exhibition
