Calling all park lovers! A new hangout spot will be coming to the 6ix. 

A new Toronto park will be built along the city's waterfront and construction is expected to start this year.

According to CreateTO, the new project which is entitled the "Leslie Slip Lookout Park" will be located on Martin Goodman Trial.

The location, which will include a public beach alongside forested dunes, aims to create a "new multi-use destination" in the city's east end.

In fact, the release even states the space could be used for pop-up events, concerts and more. 

The 1.9 acres of open space, located at 12 Leslie Street, will also have a viewing platform where you can take in the Toronto skyline. 

The park is being designed by Claude Cormier + Associés, who famously also designed Sugar Beach.

According to CP24, John Tory states while they hope to begin construction by March, it could be a few years before the park is open to the public.
