What's coming to the heart of Liberty Village
In just a few decades, what was once a collection of time-worn buildings on forgotten lands has been transformed into an eclectic, urban hotspot. Today, Liberty Village is a meld of upscale residential, statement-making workspaces and hip hang-outs. First Capital is excited to share its vision for the Shops at King Liberty. We are seeking to create energy and connection with new links, public spaces and experiences to enhance this community.
Located in the heart of Liberty Village, a new public park will merge industrial with nature -- creating a walkable botanical greenway surrounded by natural landscapes, public art and historic architecture reminiscent of the area’s industrial history. Building on the energy of this eclectic neighbourhood, the vision includes a new pedestrian promenade extending from the corner of East Liberty Street to Snooker Street, merging with the public park to create an open-air piazza with outdoor patios, markets, and new shops and restaurants lining its edge.
We are working towards completing the neighbourhood at Liberty Village by creating new linkages that will integrate with existing and future transit infrastructure – connecting you to life in Liberty Village, and beyond. Our pedestrian promenade was built to move people along safe routes to get them to transit, bridges, and parks; all under 8 minutes on foot: King Bridge, West Toronto Rail Path, West Queen West and King Highline.

This meeting was an opportunity to learn more about the vision, the project, and to ask questions to First Capital, the City, and your Councillor. We'll post a recap of the meeting shortly.
