A handful of iconic Toronto landmarks are about to get some major upgrades that will help these beloved structures shine to their maximum potential, in quite the literal sense of the term.
Repairs include addressing gaps in lighting, replacement and upgrading of deteriorated components and other elements, sprucing up a key Toronto landmark before the city appears on the world stage next year.
Over at Exhibition Place, where games will be hosted at BMO Field next June, lighting upgrades are also in the works for the Automotive Building and Princes' Gates at the east end of the Exhibition grounds.
The Exhibition Place Board of Governors will consider an item on Monday seeking to approve a bid to install new coloured LED lighting to illuminate the exterior of these two landmarks.
According to the report, existing lighting around the Automotive Building's Art Deco exterior and the archway of Princes' Gates are either missing or beyond their intended service life.
