National Garden is an imaginary canopy landscape composed of the official flowers from each Canadian province and territory. Situated at the gateway and transfer experience between the new Tremblay LRT Station and the VIA Rail Station, the sculptural canopy recognizes the faraway destinations that can be reached by train and acknowledges the distant places that travellers may have come from. The new canopy component consists of mirrored stainless steel panels integrated onto the underside of the glass canopy structure. It has been designed to have a concealed substructure and no visible fastenings. Integrated LED lighting has also been included to complement the experience of the space at night.
