Summary

Pam Fitch and her husband faced a harrowing accessibility nightmare at TD Place—struggling with inaccessible parking, stairs without handrails, and a labyrinthine journey to restrooms that cost them part of the event and left them feeling isolated. The venue’s outdated design, built in the 60s and 70s, fails even those with temporary mobility challenges, like recovering from surgery. Despite awareness from operators OSEG and ongoing plans for Lansdowne 2.0, current issues like blocked accessible parking and long elevator walks persist, turning community events into sources of indignity and discouraging participation for everyone.
