504 AnonymousSave the waterfront and the parks for the citizen's whose taxes go to pay for them. Stop Mayor Miller and the City of Toronto from selling our streets and parks to the highest bidder. 'Toronto the Good' isn't good enough, we need 'Toronto the Better' keep our streets free of billboards disguised as garbage bins and the destruction of trees, which are being cut down to make way for parking lots. Remember the words to Joni Mitchell's song: "They paved Paradise & put up a parking lot".
505 AnonymousWe can never go wrong with having more green space in a city that is growing continuously. The waterfront is such a special place why ruin it with a parking lot.

507 Cyril AlmeyInvesting in water quality along the beach is a great idea. Assuming it works, why are we blocking access to the beach?
508 SagewalkerWe need to find another solution to the parking proposal. As it stands we are trying to take back the lake's shoreline for the public and away from moneyed interests. How can we be considering this?

510 AnonymousI live in the area, and whenver I drive by the Lakeshore/ humber area, my daughter says, "I can't believe what they are doing to the Lakeshore! - aren't there enough condo's?" I clearly remember when the condos "appeared" at teh bottom of Spadina and how it completely changed the view of the waterfront as well as the feeling. I DO NOT WANT this to happen now in our neighborhood again.

514 Jodi FryeMight be helpful to get the Humber Watershed Alliance involved since the parking lot will likely impact the humber river and the surrounding ecosystem and ultimately Lake Ontario.

516 Anonymousour waterfront is ruined as it is. it's time to turn things around!
517 AnonymousI can't believe that we are getting rid of "green space" along the lakeshore. We don't have enough of it as it is. This is an incredibly beautiful and relatively quiet spot. Shame on the councillor, Sylvia Watson, and others responsible, for agreeing to this! I won't be voting for her or David Miller in the next election.

519 David SmallerCouncillor Watson has proven that she is out of touch with the views of Ward 14 residents. We need a councillor who will do the right thing the first time - not only after residents organize.

533 Drummond BurgessPrivatizing public waterfront parkland by Toronto city council to make a few extra bucks is simply unacceptable. Who on earth agreed to this nutty proposal? Is this a harbinger of things to come, for the east end as well as the west end?

541 Bruce G. HearnsThere are a number of other options to destroying that piece of parkland, for example, the rather pathetic rock Garden on the other side of the building that is already used for heavy traffic. Parking along Lakeshore after 6 PM. I appreciate that no one wants to walk 250m from the nearest parking lot and there needs be parking nearby, but this is not an acceptable solution. In any case, we need a coherent waterfront plan, instead of giving public lands to private interests piecemeal.

543 Stephanie GoddardMore poor planning - just what we need. I hope you have success in stopping this atrocity.

547 Nonie SovkaWhile it is shocking to see the rapid and seemingly unstoppable condo development of privately owned lands on the city's waterfront - why would Toronto allow distruction of city owned waterfront parkland for a parking lot, which is the first step to allowing further development?
548 Richard Krueger
549 Sarah ShujahThis deal should be discussed also with the public at community centres so to discuss waryness. Either way this project should not continue as the waterfront is party of Toronto's culture and a gravel parking lot will not suffice!
550 AnonymousThe Waterfront is the treasure of our City. The people who are in power should take the pride in preserving it, not destroying in search for a profit.
