2560 CANADA (Ontario) - Ontario Place in Toronto


Ontario Place is a multiple use site under development, located on the shore of  Lake Ontario, to the south-west of downtown Toronto. It opened on May 22, 1971 and consists of three artificially constructed, landscaped islands. Currently the site includes the Molson Canadian Amphitheatre, event facility "Atlantis", and a marina. Buildings on the site include "pods" designed by Eb Zeidler and a geodesic dome, that contained the Cinesphere IMAX theatre.

About the stamp
The stamp is part of a series of five definitive stamps, Baby Wildlife, about which I wrote here.
