From late spring to autumn, it’s one of the most beautiful locations in the entire city, owing to its greenery, quirky wooden houses, quiet lanes, secluded beaches, the Riviera Restaurant, Gibraltar Point Lighthouse, and the stunning wide view of the city’s skyline. It’s like a mini vacation to Hawaii.
It sure would be nice to live in one of those old wooden houses full-time, but seeing as the wait list is so long, a handful of visits every year will have to suffice. And that’s something many Torontonians and tourists do. According to the City of Toronto, “approximately 1.5 million people visit the Toronto Island Park [comprising three main islands—Centre, Ward’s, and Hanlan’s Point] annually.” Because of this, the ferries that shuttle passengers to the islands’ ports and back from Jack Layton Ferry Terminal are actually an essential part of the city’s transportation infrastructure.
Along these lines, a recent Instagram story advertisement alerted locals to the chance to give their input on the interior design of the city’s incoming electric ferries. But the media and public response was not entirely positive.
