“Spaces need to tell a story for people to appreciate them.”
~ Gordon Stratford
The ABC Residents Association believes Ramsden Park has an interesting and important story to tell. Since the City of York’s earliest beginnings, this unique landscape has had a meaningful connection to this community. Even today we can see its historic past and its tangible contribution to Toronto’s history. This history must be documented and celebrated.
We believe that Ramsden Park meets the criteria for designation as a Cultural Heritage Landscape. The first step towards that goal is for Ramsden Park to be evaluated by the Common Bond Collective during the City of Toronto’s Bloor-Yorkville Cultural Heritage Resource Assessment.
