Public Art at Pier 27


Location: Pier 27 development, Queens Quay
Date photo taken: 18 February 2018

The Pier 27 development is currently taking shape as part of Toronto's waterfront redevelopment. It constitutes a number of condo buildings on the plot of land between Yonge Street and the Redpath Sugar Factory. In the fall of 2017, the space between the buildings at 29 and 39 Queens Quay became the permanent home of a large art installation by American artist Alice Aycock. The forms, that of the cyclone, seen here, and the whorls of paper, glimpsed on the left edge of the picture, are reminiscent of her Park Avenue Paper Chase, which appeared in 6 locations along Park Avenue in New York between March and July of 2014.
