這個(gè)平臺(tái)上的屋頂花園將上層定義為一個(gè)公共公園，融合高抬的走道系統(tǒng)，同時(shí)設(shè)計(jì)尊重綜合體的歷史背景，以一個(gè)真正的二十一世紀(jì)交流空間呈現(xiàn)在人們面前。盡管這是加拿大最開放也是最方便公共游覽的一個(gè)屋頂空間，包含各種技術(shù)環(huán)境優(yōu)勢(shì)，但在設(shè)計(jì)時(shí)它只是被定義為一個(gè)巨大的花園，包含復(fù)雜的色澤和錯(cuò)落有致的材質(zhì)，景觀的安排突出建筑的形式和材質(zhì)，為人們提供休閑娛樂聚會(huì)的好去處；同時(shí)也在周圍高層中形成強(qiáng)烈的視覺效果。

The Podium Roof Garden re-conceives this upper level as a public park integrated with the elevated walkway system， and while respecting the complex’s heritage status， reopening it to the public as a truly engaging 21st Century space. Although it is the largest publicly accessible green roof in Canada providing a plethora of technical environmental benefits， the Podium Roof Garden is designed as a vast garden park which bears close scrutiny of its complex color and textural mosaic; is structured to closely reveal the compelling form and texture of the buildings， and provides plenty of spaces for strolling， lingering， intimacy and gathering. Simultaneously， it provides a compelling graphic legibility from the surrounding high-rise buildings.
