Cloud Gardens, Urban conservatory park in Financial District, Toronto, Canada
Cloud Gardens spans 0.6 acres between Yonge Street and Bay Street, featuring a greenhouse that recreates a rainforest environment with tropical plants.
The park emerged in the 1980s when developers of Bay Adelaide Centre provided 5 million dollars to create this space as compensation for exceeding building guidelines.
The park includes a monument dedicated to construction workers, displaying detailed squares that represent different building trades such as steel and electrical work.
The conservatory and park remain closed for extensive renovations, including waterproofing improvements, with an expected reopening scheduled for late 2026.
The greenhouse maintains specific climate conditions to sustain numerous tree ferns, palms, and vertical wall gardens through specialized misting and monorail systems.
