    Mississauga Mississauga Transitway | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | IBI Group

    I choose to remain optimistic about that triangle enclosed by highway 401, Eglinton Avenue, and Etobicoke Creek... as well as what's around Creekbank and Tahoe stations nearby. This is not downtown Toronto and I cannot expect it to behave like one. This is what exists in the real world at this...

    Mississauga Mississauga Transitway | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | IBI Group

    Good afternoon ShonTron, "The Transitway will end at Renforth and Eglinton. A short walk to perhaps two office buildings, maybe an industrial mall or two, at best." Think of it as a gateway to the airport, opening the door to future extension possibilities. Also, future development will most...

    Mississauga Mississauga Transitway | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | IBI Group

    Finally, I would just like to say something about "NIMBYs". I often find that when I am in disagreement with others and I complain about their stance or ridicule their belief on a basis which I view to be rational, informed, altruistic, and correct beyond any shadow of the doubt, I later...

    "No, the problem isn't just that the Transitway goes from nowhere to nowhere via Square One/MCC" One end is connected to the highest concentration of office space in Mississauga and largest airport in Canada... perhaps you exaggerate? ☺ "it goes along a corridor that unless [...] Highway 403...

    Mississauga Mississauga Transitway | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx | IBI Group

    Cities grow organically and in unexpected ways... often by trying to cope and make do with decisions previously thought unwise... only to ultimately make them work, forgetting and forgiving their initial (often exaggerated) folly. With the best of intentions and in the name of creating a dense...

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Perhaps... or perhaps for another year or two. It's always much more interesting to live life as an optimist, not to mention mentally healthier. Life becomes more stirring... less numb.

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Right. Cheer up cbrown2009, it's only just a temporary bad patch :-) Sooner or later, the fog will slowly lift and the opponents will be outnumbered or convert to proponents out of genuine conviction. It's only a matter of time before the issue surfaces again with renewed momentum amongst a more...

    Mississauga Hurontario-Main Line 10 LRT | ?m | ?s | Metrolinx

    Perhaps it is one of those decisions that may seem like a mistake in the beginning, but will turn out to have hidden benefits later in the future... when different thinking, practices, and technologies are available. The decision to build a city hall and establish a centre around Square One...

    Regretting about "what should have been" is an emotionally required exercise but not to be dwelled upon for too long :) We have the transitway here and now, let's work with and make the best of it. The LRTs are still on the books anyways. I like to think of this as organic growth: the city...

    Ah, interesting! This seems to be a new development as there are no news of it on the MiWay website. The eastern side of the Transitway seems station-rich, with 4 stations approximately 1 kilometre apart on average; the western side seems underserved in comparison, leaving a big 6 kilometre gap...

    2700 Aquitaine Ave (rentals, Carttera Private Equities Inc, 17+18+19s, ?s)

    Good afternoon, Would it be acceptable to you to have the towers on the Meadowvale Town Centre grounds, closer to the bus terminal? I think I would support such a move. Densification and "green" should go hand in hand.

    Good afternoon, I did a quick search to see if anyone has already brought up the issue on here. I couldn't find anything but I wasn't thorough. Since connectivity is important, is it feasible to somehow link the Transitway to Erindale GO Station? Thanks in advance.
