Alexander Muir Memorial Gardens, Public garden in Lawrence Park, Toronto, Canada.
The garden features stone balconies, crushed brick paths, formal flower beds with roses and herbs, surrounded by maple, willow and oak trees.
Created in 1933, the garden moved from its original location opposite Mount Pleasant Cemetery to Lawrence Park in 1951 due to subway construction.
A stone wall monument displays the refrain of 'The Maple Leaf Forever', composed by Alexander Muir to celebrate Canada's Confederation.
The gardens connect to a network of walking trails through Blythwood Ravine Park, Sherwood Park, and Sunnydene Park, extending to Bayview Avenue.
An international panel selected these gardens as one of Toronto's top 25 urban design projects constructed before 1985.
