Part immersive audio-visual experience, part amusement ride, FlyOver Canada will take ticket-buyers on a suspended-in-mid-air ‘flight’ over iconic Canadian landscapes. PLANT is designing the real multi-level landscape for this new attraction, which will occupy a high-profile site between the Rogers Centre and the CN Tower. PLANT is also providing local Architect services to Sturgess Architect for the building.

By introducing trees, grasses, and conversation areas that eddy along the main circulation route, PLANT’s landscape transforms a hard-surfaced pedestrian thoroughfare into inviting public realm space. FlyOver Canada’s entry-level plaza, publicly accessible patio roof, and upper-level extensive green roof are designed to provide engaging views from multiple perspectives. Viewed from the top of the CN Tower, FlyOver’s roof reads as a stylized prairie-to-forest-to-mountain landscape. Evoking the forested shorelines of northern lakes in Ontario and Quebec, the plaza landscape expands the tree canopy around an existing fountain. Along FlyOver’s perimeter, logjam-like paving incursions knit this new destination into Toronto’s signature entertainment and tourism precinct.
