Toronto Love Park pond goes green again

The heart shaped pond in Love Park has gone a lovely shade of green again, much like the reported incident in 2023 when algae filled the water in the pond. It's ridiculous that this issue persists because I think it interferes with my swimming laps as it's kind of soupy.

As an urban oasis the 2-acre park at York and Queens Quay West is a boutique park filled mostly with the pond, so you really notice the off colour water.

The City of Toronto notes that "features within the park include: A large, shallow, heart-shaped pond at the park’s centre, combined with existing and newly planted trees to create a tranquil area amongst the bustling city streets, a gently swirling pathway for pedestrians to move through the park quickly or stroll and enjoy a calm respite, nine bronze-cast Canadian animals and moveable café-style tables and chairs sponsored by the Waterfront BIA and a trellis, a drinking fountain and a dog’s off-leash area."
