Correct me if i'm wrong, but won't the entrance be from the east side of the street on bathurst directly north of the gardiner? If you pass by the area you can see a long walkway already constructed.

I think you might be referring to Fort York Blvd. The Park will not be adjacent to Bathurst, but a block to the west. The Park's western edge will be and extension of Dan Leckie Way, where the white trailer is parallel to Bathurst.
So what's the piece of land west of the white trailer? Any construction going on there? Thanks.
I have quite a bit of sympathy for 3Dementia's comments about parks - brought to mind by the diagrams for the June Callwood park. Not that some of them don't seem cool, but is there anything wrong with a bit o' grass, trees and benches, a largely unprogrammed area? I found the designs for that park, and perhaps for this one too, to be a bit overwrought, and I always wonder how well they will be kept up.
I remain unconvinced that "clever" parks like this (and hTo, Sugar Beach etc.) will stand the test of time...
I look at the Island as Toronto's great park.
Furthermore, watching Obama's acceptance speach in Grant Park/Chicago last night it dawns on me how necessary an open park/meeting space is, all the more so in a democracy.
