    Mississauga (non-mall) Retail

    It's not owned by 20Vic...it's actually owned by the Ontario Pension Board. 20Vic manages it. And the Pension Board has the resources, for sure. But yeah, 20Vic has a good record with Yorkdale...

    Mississauga (non-mall) Retail

    I think the goal is to have it become the Yorkdale of the western GTA. So I would imagine more focus on high-end fashion retailers...but who would choose to locate there in the current state of the mall? It's odd that they've tried the whole fashion-focus since the first reno, and it's never...

    Mississauga (non-mall) Retail

    The EMTC reno/expansion will be huge. On par with Yorkdale's.

    Mississauga (non-mall) Retail

    Exciting is a good theme for the renovation...I find EMTC such a boring place to be. The horrible layout doesn't help, to be sure, but the stores, design, etc. are just so...bland....

    Sheridan College (MCC, 4s, Rounthwaite Dick & Hadley Architects) COMPLETE

    They distributed those to all the area residents as well - nice to see some proactive thinking. Hopefully it will help.

    Roads: Highway 401 Widening - Highway 8 to Highway 410 (MTO, U/C, Planned)

    I saw that too. It was hard to see if the EA included the full 403/410/401 interchange, but I would be surprised if it didn't.

    Mississauga Celebration Square Redevelopment (CS&P Architects) COMPLETE

    Wow! What a huge improvement over the previous staging of this event. The square sure is getting a lot of use so far...

    Mississauga (non-mall) Retail

    Interesting - that's not where I expected it to go (there's another huge parcel of land on the north side), but that's a large site, assuming they bought the land behind the strip mall back to the tracks. That land has been undergoing remediation for the last 2 years.

    Roads: Highway 401 Widening - Highway 8 to Highway 410 (MTO, U/C, Planned)

    You were correct - they took down 1/2 of the north side. So that means at least 3 more nights of similar closures to come...

    Roads: Highway 401 Widening - Highway 8 to Highway 410 (MTO, U/C, Planned)

    I think taking down an entire bridge span over one night is pretty darn impressive. I would be surprised if the intention was ever to demo the entire structure, including the sides. They will need to close a few lanes whenever they decide to take those sides down, though.

    Roads: Highway 401 Widening - Highway 8 to Highway 410 (MTO, U/C, Planned)

    Wow - very cool video - thanks. It's like demolition porn.

    Mississauga Celebration Square Redevelopment (CS&P Architects) COMPLETE

    Didn't the $40 million also include the parking garage roof resealing and renovations?

    Roads: Highway 401 Widening - Highway 8 to Highway 410 (MTO, U/C, Planned)

    Both the eastbound and westbound exit lanes are now using the new stretch of highway. I was surprised to see the westbound exit using the new transfer tunnel this week. It's going to look quite different with that old bridge out of the way.

    Mississauga Community Common Park COMPLETE

    Yeah, pretty sad looking.

    Mississauga Celebration Square Redevelopment (CS&P Architects) COMPLETE

    Those fountains help 'animate' things quite a bit - nice.

    Thanks. City Centre looks nice and narrow as it passes through the square.

    Mississauga Celebration Square Redevelopment (CS&P Architects) COMPLETE

    I finally saw the screens testing last night and they looked great. They really make this huge area feel more enclosed.

    News on retail chains (was: New Mall Retail)

    In the e-mail announcing the closure, R&W did say that they would reopen in a new location later this year.
