A large-scale development of a vacant piece of farmland located at 323 Oxford Street West in London adjacent to the Cherry Hill and Sugar Creek communities. This is still in the very early stages, but high-density development is planned with preliminary documents showing 15 towers with maximum heights of 16s with 8-10s podiums, with additional mid-rises and townhouses across other parts of the property. Large amounts of forested area and park land will be retained, and a reconstructed and re-naturalized Mud Creek will also run throughout the community. Road connections are planned for Westfield Drive in the Cherry Hill community to the east, and for Beaverbrook Drive at both the Sugar Creek community to the south and the Cherry Ridge community to the west.
Mud Creek revitalization work south of this property from Wonderland to Oxford is already in-progress as a separate project. This work is intended to solve stormwater drainage issues that affect the area, which is being achieved by re-naturalizing the existing creek channel, digging out sediment, and installing new culverts and drainage tunnels. Once the work is complete next year, it sounds like preliminary work (land clearing, realignment of Mud Creek north of Oxford, servicing, etc.) can begin.
I hope that the City of London finally pulls their heads out of the sand and builds the West BRT leg to Oxford/Wonderland - the area already needs it and a large scale development like this will make things even busier.
