Summary[edit]
| Description |
A small Ro-Ro ferry serves residents of Ward's Island, year-round, even when the harbour is covered in ice. Once most of the Toronto Islands was full of little cottages. Then most of the cottages, all but those on Ward's Island, the easternmost part of the Islands, were demolished, so there was more parkland, for recreational visitors. The occupants on Ward's Island were given long term leases, but while they allowed to winterize their cottages, and can request minor changes, like adding sleeping lofts, they can't extensively renovate or replace those cottages, which are generally less than 1000 square feet. During the summer three or four large passenger ferries carry visitors. During the winter this much smaller ferry serves the residents of Wards Island. A few days ago I took some snapshots of Toronto's main fireboat, the William Lyon Mackenzie, clearing a path through the ice, for this ferry.  |
