The curb lane public spaces between Bathurst and Jarvis Streets are currently delineated by planters. Local businesses were offered the opportunity to claim the public spaces on the block adjacent to their business for their use. Spaces not claimed by local businesses were included in the Everyone is King design build competition.
"I was really excited to see the calibre of the submissions to the design competition," said Councillor Lucy Troisi (Ward 28 Toronto Centre-Rosedale). "I can't wait to see how they translate from paper to reality over the next few weeks. I hope everyone takes the opportunity to visit King Street and enjoy these installations."
The competition saw a total of 96 entries in two categories. The winning projects from the design build competition are:
