Join us as we celebrate the opening of a landmark project that’s been more than a decade in the making.
Come see the site’s transformation from a degraded section of the Mississauga shoreline into a into a thriving waterfront conservation area with a restored habitat.
Over nine years, local photo artists documented the evolution of this site from a degraded section of the Mississauga shoreline into a into a thriving waterfront conservation area with a restored habitat. This culminating exhibition explores our evolving relationship with water and landscapes, and our shared stewardship in protecting the Great Lakes.
We invite you to this special event marking the completion of this landmark project and the closing chapter of the Morphology series. Experience the exhibit, meet the artists and engage with works reflecting the intersection of ecology, design and environmental transformation.

City services | April 27, 2026
The City’s launches are used about 8,000 times annually and are busiest on summer weekends. The City has had to increase staffing and security to manage the high demand.
The fees apply to anyone who uses a trailer to launch their watercraft from the ramps. Residents will pay $10 for one day, $40 for seven days or $120 for the full season. Non‑residents will pay $15 for one day, $60 for seven days or $180 for the full season. Paying the seasonal fee allows users to launch their watercraft from the ramps at Marina Park and Lakefront Promenade for the entire season, from when the ramps open in the spring until the fall, weather permitting.
Paying the fee
The fees can be paid online. In-person payment is also available at the City’s marina offices. Marina staff will be on site to explain the new fee, help with mobile payment if needed, and check that the fee has been paid.

Project Overview
The City of Mississauga (“City”) is planning to remove numerous trees within the Cooksville Creek corridor, south of Lakeshore Road East, beginning in January 2026. The tree removals are necessary to facilitate upcoming construction activities later in 2026, including:
• restoration of the creek banks to address ongoing erosion issues;
• replacement of the Helen Molasy Trail and berm along the eastern creek bank; and
• replacement of clogged catch basins and drain pipes that aid in draining the backyards behind the creek.
Background information for the project can be found on the City’s Class Environmental Assessment website:
https://www.mississauga.ca/projects-and-strategies/environmental-assessments/cooksville-creek-erosion-control-south-of-lakeshore-road/
All of the planned tree removals are located within public lands along the creek and trail corridor. No trees located on private lands are planned for removal at this time. At the conclusion of the project, hundreds of new trees and shrubs will be planted within the corridor.
