I love it. In desolate downtown Brampton they can build 55/58 floors. At port credit the place I am told should have been downtown mississauga we can’t build more than 40 floors. Same lrt. Same go train. Different planning.

well I’m skeptical of this time line. 1 Milton 2 sheppard. 3 Ontario line extension. Sure seems like 3 and 2 would be flipped otherwise the Yonge line would be exploding from new riders.

You said cookie cutter houses and never mentioned the space . Just be consistent when you’re trashing another city.

If you think St Catherine’s is better. I dunno. I guess everyone has their opinion. Just to be clear. Even Toronto has cookie cutter homes.

As a Mississauga resident I don’t appreciate the slander from Torontonians. And now I have to listen to it from Hamiltonians. That’s silly.

Who’s going skiing via public transit. That seems like a pipe dream.

Yes this is true. But that’s because it’s lining a major street that is up for a new transit line. . You are correct. I guess I could argue that we will see midrises and old 2 floor buildings on hurontario be torn down to build something more dense. Specifically I meant more the culdesacs or...

Yes plazas are being redeveloped in the inner suburbs. Car dealerships are being torn down for density.that’s happening in Mississauga too. What I’d like to see is the SFHs in Toronto be ripped down for density. Until I see that happen I’m going to continue to say that to Toronto has the same...

Who said anything about the suburbs disappearing. We’re on a thread about a building within MCC. What we should be able to agree about and what is a good thing is that MCC parking lots are disappearing.

Planning will help MCC be more urban friendly. The rest of Mississauga is in a different situation. Port credit, dundas and hurontario have hope because they have transit and a lot to work with. But the rest won’t be urban friendly. Again though there is plenty of Toronto which isn’t very urban...

I think this makes much more sense here then at port credit. At port credit there would be a GO station and an LRT route.... but here people can walk to a street car... that makes much more sense...

if the Walmart went down Kariya Gate would simply bend around the corner of the mall and connect with Hammerson Drive... I understand moving a Walmart would cost millions of dollars but were talking about freeing up major pieces of land for huge amounts of development. Surely at some point...

If the bay is going bankrupt could Walmart not locate there. You get three floors and a parking garage. Then you could extend kariya gate and shrink the mall. On the opposite side of the mall if you ripped down where the old movie theatre was you could extend Mercer street and if you took down...

I mentioned the idea of removing or moving Walmart at square one to make kariya gate go all the way to rathburn making a new north south road which would help with the grid layout you like. However you dismissed the idea because you thought Walmart had three floor potential. If you want to...

Befikre bar and grill?

Maybe something was built here in 1825-1850. But it wasn’t this plaza. This has zero of the areas Victorian vibe. At least be consistent when building. The best case scenario is I’m really wrong and that huge parking lot was for all the horses in town. I kinda don’t think that’s the case though.

ok let’s be clear. Those six lane roads are not in the downtown area. So let’s seperate downtown from the rest of the city. Confederation, Duke of York, kariya gate, and living arts drive are not strodes. Secondly I am pretty sure Mississauga is using the exact same material as Toronto for its...

Pro tip. It’s reduce, reuse, then recycle. The first option is always the best for the planet.

The suburbs immediately out of the core just got zoned for four floor buildings. I could be wrong and it could be six. Those SFH houses can change. Also places like Yorkdale which had that Victorian vibe are being ripped down for condos. And it’s all good to like Victorian vibe houses. I lived...

I’m still a bit confused what you mean? Is it the juxtaposition of SFH vs 60 floor condos that make it more suburban than Toronto which is 60 floor condos then slowly down to 30 floor condos then down to semis then down to SFH? Here is a map of both the square one lands and another map of...
