Actually, I think the undeveloped areas on the map above are under separate ownership from the already developed areas. The areas that have already been developed were sold as condo units, and operate under a condo board model. I do wonder though if one of the 2 condo boards might buy the...

The New York Times has an article about Ridgeway Plaza in Mississauga.

Niagara regional council discussed this station last year. I haven't re-watched the council meeting to re-fresh my memory, but I wrote this summary at the time.

Mississauga city council, in a further motion today, extended the development charge tax breaks until Dec. 2027. Developers had apparently told multiple councillors that November 2026 was too tight of a deadline. My read of this motion is that the fees will now not be fully restored until...

Mississauga city council today granted Indwell, a housing charity, a $1 million grant to help buy a site in Malton near Westwood Square mall. Mayor Carolyn Parrish said Indwell's proposal was for 200 affordable rental units, and another 40 deeply affordable units. Parrish said the seller...

They put out a construction notice for that.

I'm just going to quote this here for future ease of reference, because I think it's a good point.

Metrolinx says it will soon remove an abandoned section of track at Burlington GO station. I think it used to be a platform track. (EDIT: I initially forgot to add a link to the notice. The link is there now.)

For those curious, we do have a UT thread dedicated to potential Hamilton-Niagara GO improvements.

The Lakeshore West line also has three weekend closures scheduled in May and June. It seems like they are avoiding any closures on weekends during the FIFA world cup. The closures on all lines seem to stop on June 7, and don't resume until late July.

The city of Mississauga is looking for a consultant to develop a Major Transit Station Area plan for Lisgar GO. The study will look at properties within 800 metres of the GO station.

For context on modern lakefill projects, the city of Mississauga recently completed an environmental review for a new marina and housing project. The review took 6 years to complete I think. So I imagine any infill for a convention centre could not begin for many years, even if fill was...

Track work is upcoming for the new St. Clair station.

Work on the Etobicoke Creek bridge on the Lakeshore West line is continuing. The latest notice suggests work will continue until at least June.
