Toronto Harbour had cleared of ice by the time this image by UrbanToronto Forum contributor rdaner was taken a week ago today, and by now the new mouth of the Don River may have cleared of ice as well. At the same time, the scaffold that at one point covered the majority of the Atlas Crane seems to be melting away too. The crane, that was once used to unload ships when this area was industrial port land, is being painted to preserve it for the future while honouring the area’s past. While inaccessible to the public for the moment, it is on its way to becoming a landmark for the future Biidaasige Park that will open at the west end of the new Ookwemin Minising community that will be built on these lands.
