landscape firms - Brown + Storey Architects Inc
The competition, which aims to generate an exciting landscaping vision for the new streetcar storage and maintenance facility, was launched on Wednesday, May 19.
Three urban design landscape firms - Brown + Storey Architects Inc., Fleisher Ridout, and gh3 - were selected to prepare landscaping design concepts that encourage greening in the area as well as provide a beautiful entranceway to the Leslie Street Spit. Additionally, the design must be both innovative and environmentally conscious.Brown + Storey are proposing an evolving design that includes a variety of patterns, surfaces, figures, vegetation, and habitation modelled after the Leslie Street Spit, a 'terra incognita' (landscape in process.)
Their goal is for the community and the city to successfully 'own' the multipurpose site, which they view as a bridge between motion and rest serving as an intersection between the Eastern Beaches, the Spit and the community.
