Right, but the path is also the reason why the water pools there. As you note, they could have elevated the path and built some manner of allowing the water to drain from there - they certainly have done that elsewhere, so it's not like it is a foreign concept.

I too could have seen a pond or marsh as an idea "feature" for that spot, which is why I'm a bit flabbergasted to see that instead nothing was done other than "hopes and dreams".

Someone (@NorthernLight ??) might want to ask the PFR team - See https://www.toronto.ca/city-governm...gies/taylor-massey-sub-watershed-master-plan/ The Plan talks about drainage improvements.

The above plan, like most of the Ravine Stategy etc. is unfunded.

I'm pushing to get at least one of the signature projects pushed forward. We shall see.

They have paved the trail in the valley, and are just finishing paving the trail up the hill by the parking lot (they have the fence moved over so much to allow for said paving that I had to walk the Bike Share a bit).

View of the newly paved trail, and the copse of recently planted trees discussed above

Sorry no pic (it was getting dark), but trail near Stan Wadlow is open now.

I took a picture last week as I rode through. The stonework and woodwork and bridgework is quite lovely.

Nothing better than biking on freshly paved asphalt.
