Creating new parkland in the heart of the Don Valley
Toronto is in need of more places for people to live, gather, and play.
Though the Flemingdon Park neighborhood sits on the edge of the Don River Valley, access is limited. Private ownership of key valley lands has restricted access and made it challenging to connect parts of the valley.
To increase the supply of parkland and housing, Don Valley ReConnects proposes to repurpose the Flemingdon Golf Club, a privately owned golf course located at 155 St. Dennis Drive, and return approximately 96% of the site (40 acres) for public use.
The proposed 40-acres—roughly the size of Trinity Bellwoods Park— would represent one of the largest contributions of new public open space in Toronto’s recent history.
This parkland would be unlocked by the development of four residential buildings on a small portion of the site, alongside St. Dennis Drive.
