Summary

Toronto’s beloved Amsterdam Bridge is back open after five years of disrepair, just in time for the World Cup. Once a gift from Amsterdam in 1974, this iconic pedestrian link to the Harbourfront Centre was restored through a $1.24 million effort funded by city initiatives and the Harbourfront Centre itself. Built right here in Ontario with Dutch-inspired design, the bridge not only reconnects people to waterfront culture but also rekindles the historic bond between Toronto and Amsterdam — a relationship symbolized by the bridge’s original gift and Amsterdam’s renaming of its own bridge to Torontobrug.
