Patios where you can eat and drink while floating on the edge of Lake Ontario. Valets who take care of your bicycle while you dismount to shop. A nightlife...

Toronto’s Waterfront Business Improvement Area suggests in a report released this week that tourists feel 'underwhelmed' by the lack of things to do at Toronto's waterfront.

The full potential of the waterfront has "yet to be unlocked," the BIA says in the report, partly due to previous development decisions that haven't fully satisfied the "diverse aspirations" of the tourists, office workers and residents who visit, work and live in the area. The BIA says some ideas for attracting more visitors include more waterfront patio options, food halls, markets and a nightlife destination.

In addition to floating patios, bike valets and more nightlife options, other ideas floated in the report include: food halls, breweries, family-friendly restaurants, water-based businesses, a better mix of shops, murals, street furniture and more.
