thinc design is currently working with the City of Toronto on Ranleigh Park. The site is the location of an old Church which was removed. It was determined by the community and the City that this would be an opportunity for added green space in the neighbourhood. Adjacent to the school, the park provides an extension of its uses and promotes community interaction.
Proposed Park amenities include:
large open lawn area
Seating and gathering areas (dining table, games tables, benches and seatwalls)
shade structure
Adult Fitness equipment
Labyrinth
Demonstration garden beds
Perennial planting beds
Pathway
Because of the prior use of the site, it requires environmental remediation to remove contaminated soil related to the demolished church that was formerly located on the site. This is currently taking place.
The park was substantially completed in the fall of 2021.
