糖海滩
Sugar Beach
由Claude Cormier+Associés设计的加拿大糖业海滩利用了该地区的工业遗产及其与邻近Redpath糖厂的关系。
Claude Cormier + Associés: Canada’s Sugar Beach is an imaginative park that transformed a surface parking lot in a former industrial area in Toronto into a modern urban beachfront.
The design for Canada’s Sugar Beach, by Claude Cormier + Associés, draws upon the industrial heritage of the area and its relationship to the neighbouring Redpath Sugar factory.

公园有三个不同的组成部分:城市海滩;一个广场空间,一条绿树成荫的长廊,斜穿过公园,以标志性的加拿大枫叶形状呈现有趣的水景。这个8500平方米的公园是游客从中央海滨沿着多伦多皇后码头旅行时看到的第一个公共空间。公园色彩鲜艳的粉色沙滩伞和标志性的糖果条纹岩石露头欢迎游客来到东海滨的新街区。
Waterfront Toronto was at the helm of redeveloping Toronto’s waterfront, and received $1.1 billion over ten years from local, provincial and federal governments.
The park features three distinct components: an urban beach; a plaza space, and a tree-lined promenade running diagonally through the park with a playful water feature in the shape of the iconic Canadian maple leaf. The 8,500 square metre park is the first public space visitors see as they travel along Toronto’s Queens Quay from the central waterfront. The park’s brightly coloured pink beach umbrellas and iconic candy-striped rock outcroppings welcome visitors to the new waterfront neighbourhood of East Bayfront.
加拿大的糖海滩提醒我们多伦多的海滨是一个好玩的目的地。海滩允许游客在沙滩上放松和玩耍,或在湖面上观看船只。海滩旁的花岗岩枫叶镶嵌着动感的水景,为公众降温带来乐趣。公园广场为公众活动提供了一个充满活力的空间。大型糖果条纹花岗岩岩石露头和三个草丘为大型活动提供了独特的有利位置,丘之间的空间为小型活动创造了自然的表演空间。
Canada’s Sugar Beach reminds us that Toronto’s waterfront is a playful destination. The beach allows visitors to relax and play in the sand or watch boats on the lake. The dynamic water feature, embedded in a granite maple leaf beside the beach makes cooling off fun for the public. The park’s plaza offers a dynamic space for public events. A large candy-striped granite rock outcropping and three grass mounds give the public unique vantage points for larger events with the spaces between the mounds creating natural performance spaces for smaller events.
Between the plaza and the beach, people stroll through the park along a granite cobblestone with maple leaf mosaic pattern. The promenade offers a shaded route to the water’s edge providing the public with many opportunities along the way to sit and enjoy views to the lake, beach or plaza.
该项目获得了加拿大风景园林师协会颁发的地区荣誉奖、多伦多城市设计奖颁发的优秀奖、加拿大皇家建筑学院颁发的城市设计项目奖、加拿大AZURE杂志颁发的AZ奖,以及2012年ASLA普通设计专业奖。
