About Ireland Park

Ireland Park is located on the shores of Lake Ontario on Éireann Quay, adjoining the Canada Malting Silos, at the foot of Bathurst Street in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Officially opened in the summer of 2007, Ireland Park commemorates the estimated 38,000 Irish who left Ireland during the Great Famine and the over 1,100 new immigrants who died during the Typhus epidemic of 1847.
