The Ontario Premier said today that he wants to work collaboratively with the city of Toronto to build something ‘spectacular’ on the Ontario Science Centre’s current site
Premier Doug Ford says the current east Toronto site of the Ontario Science Centre could eventually be used for a community centre or a school after the province moves the attraction to Ontario Place downtown.
Ford has previously mused about building housing on the site, but said today that he wants to work collaboratively with the city to build something “spectacular.” The Toronto and Region Conservation Authority owns much of the land at the current science centre site, with most of the rest owned by the city, and it says it has had no discussions with the province about a possible science centre relocation.
Ford has dismissed the current science centre building as “run down,” and his infrastructure minister has said it is more cost effective to move the attraction to a redeveloped Ontario Place than rebuild it in its current location.that they say backs up that assertion.
