The Mountain Coming to Torontoist?

2006_3_3mountain.jpgSuperkul architects are guest editors over at Reading Toronto this week and they’re starting off with an idea of monumental scale. What Toronto needs is a “a mountain for everyone to enjoy, and would topographically link us to Montreal and Vancouver.”
The mountain would use dirt excavated from developments and leftovers from demolitions. Torontoist also wonders whether this would be an effective solution to the city’s garbage problem? Also what would we name the peak? The safe choice is naming it after the city, Mt. Toronto, anyone? Naming it Mt. Miller would continue our tradition of naming civic monuments after mayors. We say open it up and do the naming SkyDome style, how many people get to say they named a mountain?
