Soon, the unused and disregarded space under the Gardiner Expressway will become a park, now known as The Bentway — or maybe it's not quite right to call it a park.
Ken Greenberg, an urban designer working on the project says "part of its disruptive nature is it's not quite obvious what to call it. It is not a park. It's something different."
"I can describe it as a living room, as a porch. People are going to come up with all these names, but the main thing is that it's not one single thing."
So what will you find in this living room, porch, park, thing? In a series of 55 'rooms' between the Gardiner's supporting structure, The Bentway will become a performance space for music, theatre, and dance as well as a meeting place for the city with markets, food, and recreational trails.
