Urban Garden’s renewal makes the garden for this North York condominium building both more sustainable and more usable.
The original plan included an inoperative water feature, an unused putting green, minimal seating, and plants in decline.
Urban Garden’s renewal features a living pond, better seating, new plantings, a gazebo and a peaceful central court.
The colour rendering for the central court lifts the design concept plan off the page.
For residents, the built space provides attractive balcony views in all seasons.
Evergreen and deciduous trees and shrubs combine with perennials in a plan designed to keep maintenance to a minimum.
A waterfall ensures aeration for the living pond and adds the dimension of sound.
Retaining key elements of the mature plantings creates an immediate sense of permanence in the central court.
In this pleasant outdoor setting, stone benches and movable bistro tables present inviting new seating opportunities.
