This thread can be used for discussion of the Cooksville Transit Oriented Community, which is made up of the East Site and West Site (both of which have dedicated DB pages linked atop this thread).

The east site contains four towers of 49, 46, 42 & 40 storeys with 1680 units.
The west side contains four towers of 44, 38, 32 & 28 storeys with 1375 units.

3,000 Units Planned in 8 Towers at Cooksville GO and LRT | UrbanToronto

Infrastructure Ontario is planning for over 3,000 units in eight towers from 28 to 49 storeys beside Cooksville GO station and the Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT. The two-site Transit Oriented Community plan would also deliver retail, office space, and new public plazas in the heart of Mississauga.

Ah, if only immigration was 3% annually and interest rates were 0.25% again so we could still keep building ridiculousness like this!

Right next to a single/semi-detached housing subdivision by the station. Imagine how one can justify that much density in one lot by GO Access Rd. while insulating the former.

This is great to see! Those big parking lots are not are a great use of space with the LRT opening.

I'm not sure I get the logic though of cutting the towers facing Hillcrest down to 28 & 32. I would be fine with them being 40 storeys. The only thing they would loom over is T. L. Kennedy high school, which will itself probably be re-developed eventually.

The area could probably do with more park space given all the development in the area, but I don't think this site is a good fit for a big park.

My personal preference would be to replace the high school with a 4-storey structure, add a residential tower, put the high school parking lot underground, and shift the high school's football field eastwards. Then the spot currently occupied by the high school football field could be added to Sgt. David Yakichuk Park to enlarge it.

I'm also eyeing the retail aspect along Hurontario. I can't quite see the Hurontario side in the renders posted above, but hopefully there's some street-facing retail there. Mississauga has a retail development strategy due out any day now, and I'd love to see incentives for new retail along Hurontario.

Is this the "Connecting Cooksville" project or is that seperate from this?

This is separate from the Connecting Cooksville development. Connecting Cooksville is five towers on the corner of Hillcrest and Hurontario (you can find the UT project thread for that here).

This project is eight towers in two blocks. Four towers would be north of Connecting Cooksville, on the north side of John St. Four other towers would be west of Connecting Cooksville, between the new GO parking garage and Hillcrest.

It's also in no way happening. Mattamy is trying to figure out what to do with their big density play across the street too.

I expect we'll see a lot of downsizings of development plans in the next few years.

Infrastructure Ontario is scheduled to speak to the General Committee of Mississauga city council Wednesday. The subject is the Cooksville and Clarkson transit-oriented development proposals. It will be a closed session (i.e. non-public, behind closed doors).
