Evergreen Brick Works severely impacted by record rainfall

Toronto experienced record-breaking rainfall Tuesday, leading to widespread flooding throughout the city. Evergreen Brick Works was among the hardest-hit areas, but thanks to the quick response of dedicated staff, including ensuring the safety of 113 young campers, there have been no reported injuries.

Despite being designed with flood resilience in mind, the extreme weather still impacted the site. Evergreen Brick Works (550 Bayview Avenue), known for its greenways, cisterns, and permeable surfaces, is now in need of support to cover the costs of clean-up and recovery. The site will remain closed until further notice.
