TORONTO — The European company planning a spa and waterpark at Ontario Place says it has completed a redesign to create more public space and give the building a smaller footprint in response to feedback.
Some community members and politicians have voiced opposition to the privately owned facility, particularly the amount of publicly accessible land, and representatives from Therme say they will be submitting an updated design to the city.
They also say the building itself will be 25 per cent smaller than the original design, which is done by shrinking the height and the scale of the building. The provincial government has said its plan to redevelop Ontario Place includes the Therme facility, a new Live Nation concert venue, a relocated Ontario Science Centre, as well as public space and beaches.
