Reuse Of Lost Space
This shot is taken along the walkway into the Fort York visitor centre which I showed you a couple of days ago. You can see a bit of the steel wall of the centre off to the left of these large supports for the Gardiner Expressway which runs overhead along our lakeshore. This area has always been rather derelict and unused but now the centre has planted grasses and put in pathways leading up to the fort and while I was there you could see people actually walking through here. It's a good thing!
fantastic idea and people are happy because they can be active.
ReplyDeleteIt is great to see proper use of these spaces under expressways. Cities lose land to these elevated roadways, so it is good to see this development.
ReplyDeletethat's pretty cool!
ReplyDeleteI like the shadows falling and tall stanchions.
ReplyDeleteThat is a good thing. It loos so neat and tidy for under a freeway.
ReplyDeleteA simple change can make all the difference! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI hope it is well lit at night...
ReplyDeleteLove the repeating lines in this shot.
ReplyDeleteThat's a very solid looking structure, great angle!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad people are finding innovative ways to use this kinds of space.
ReplyDeleteHow nice that it has been spruced up and people are using it! Nice shot.
ReplyDeleteSome use of that area is a good thing, after all this time.

It is a good thing for sure! And a great picture ... Wonderful perspective.
ReplyDeleteThis is great. I truly love it when we do this kind of thing in our cities.
ReplyDeleteIt has a nice architectural look to it. Much better than most land under bridges. (Though sometimes I like the raw look of infrastructure gained from wandering under facilities that are not intended to be seen from the underbelly.)
ReplyDeleteFabulous photo!
