The park is a large rectangle, and at the northeast corner is a circle with a stone at the center, then several plaques explaining what it's all about.

The plaques first explain the stone. The park was officially opened in 1987.
However it had been dedicated by Norway's king in 1977 (1987 was the date of its transfer to its current location).
And this plaque has insanely small type. Essenetially: the exiled Norwegian Royal Air Force used this area of Toronto as a training grounds during World War II. The flagpole this plaque is mounted on is all that remains of the original base.
