The Spit: Urban Oasis
Leslieville's Secret Park
Living at Towns On Curzon offers residents the unique advantage of being just down the street from the Leslie Street Spit, also known as Tommy Thompson Park.
This urban oasis, described as a "strange but wonderful work in progress," offers a serene escape from city life. Unlike typical parks, the Spit is a dynamic landscape made up of construction waste, providing a fascinating blend of nature and industry. The park is a haven for solitude, bird-watching, and even swimming.
The park's ever-changing wetlands, abundant wildlife, and unique beaches composed of water-smoothed bricks and tiles provide endless exploration opportunities. Whether you're walking along evolving paths or enjoying the creative play with children, the Leslie Spit offers a sense of discovery and tranquility. The stunning views of the Toronto skyline further enhance its appeal, making it a hidden treasure just minutes from home.
