It's actually an off ramp. Not sure how you proposed to detach it from the Gardiner. I mean I don't really see a purpose to climb up an off ramp to find a jumping off point at the top. I don't see much of a viewing area looking directly at a Target Department Store sign. (The parking lot with all the white trailers is where Harbour Plaza is under construction. The other one across the street is where 10 York is being built)

They preserved the pillars of the on ramp back when the Gardiner Extension was demolished. It looks pretty stupid not becoming close to what the landscape designers has originally intented.
