Oh, so Cooksville is getting some high density too? Didn't you say that the city "only approves things at MCC and at the south east corner of the QEW ramp in order to keep the integrity of the communities"?
Port Credit is getting taller building than what the NIMBY and the City want to see in the first place because of Ford. NOLA Condos at 8 Ann St were to be 22 storys with a great design and only got built as 15s scale down run of the mill.
Westport at 28 Ann St was built as 22s which was higher than 18s everyone wanted to see there. 88 Park St currently GO parking lot was plan for 2-45s towers and are now 38s. 42-46 Park St was proposed as a 40s and is now 31s.
Brightwater site is to have a number of towers up to 35s now and an increase of height than original plan for.
If you look at Lakeshore just in port Credit area, there is nothing over 3s at the best with mainly 2s. Even within 500 meters of the Lakeshore is mainly 2s building with various apartment building in the 6-15s range and a couple 30s. Over all, its a ;low density area like Streetsville.
From Park St to the North Service Rd is mainly 1s with a few 2s and at 6s office building at the South Service Rd. There is a plan for the OPP site for a 26s tower with 2 sites being 3 & 4s tall. Anything within 500 meters of the corridor is 1-2s residental. From the North Service Rd to Dundas building range from 8s to 25s mainly on the east side with strip malls, a church and 2 towers on the westside with one 26s proposed. There was another 25s plab north of the North Service Rd and council said no with only 10s being allow.
From Dundas to CPKC line is strip malls and TLK as well a 15s tower. Plans call from Hillcrest to CPKC to be tall towers up to 49s on both side of the corridor. There ar a fair number of 25-30s buildings on both side of the corridor within 500 meters. THere are a number of development just built at 18s with a few to come at 26-36s. The south east corner at Hillcrest will see 3 site built with one at 38s, 42s and X.
There is density coming to the corridor within in the next 10 years to support the LRT and GO. I will not go futher on the rest as its a mix bag from CPKC to Eginton with Eglinton Seen huge amount of density with most not using the LRT because of the loop and splitting of the line when it will be faster to drive to the GO station.
Over all, the city only wants pockets of density starting with the Ern Mills Mall. You will never see density in Lorne Park area since that is were the $5-$20 million homes are. Clarkson will see some 25s towers but the city wants to leave it as a village which is a joke considering there only 4 original building from the past there.
The word for Hurontario St now is go high as you want or what every devlopers want to do with a few hight restrictions for flight path for the airport as well the new hospital that will have a landing pad on the roof. I will believe it when it happens as a number have already been shot down, Anything north of Bristol will be under 20s due to fight restrictions as well the city wants it to be employment land only. Canadian Tire try to build a store at Derry which I opposed and the city said no. It was appeal and it was turn down there as well.
I don't remember specifically sorry. Probably in between Elm and the GO station. Could have been a bit south of that too but can't say for sure. I was driving from Elm to Indian Valley.
Most likey doing formwork for the tracks so concrete could be pour for the rest of the week.
Return the car today and part of the northbound track south of Fairview have ties anchor in place with concrete with work taking place on the southbound track.
Trench work still taking place on Dundas with Hydro duct tubes sitting by the area, Part of the new poured northbound curb south of Dundas as well part of the road has beeb dug up.
