Five finalists have been selected in a competition to improve public access to the waterfront, including creation of a continuous promenade from one end of the inner harbour to the other. The chosen designs will be unveiled Monday evening at BCE Place, one of several public showings before a final decision is made. The winner will be selected May 31 and initial construction is projected to begin in the autumn. "We are thrilled with the interest in Toronto's waterfront and the creativity and understanding the teams have shown for creating a bold and innovative waterfront identity," said Robert Fung, chairman of the Toronto Waterfront Revitalization Corp., which is driving the process.
