New pre-application in Burlington:

@Paclo beat me to it! haha. Here's a zoomed out map. The site is under one kilometre from Burlington GO and the Burlington Centre mall. As you can see in the streetview picture from Paclo, Fairview has had some good work done in the last few years in preparation for these inevitable developments, with very wide sidewalks and new trees planted along the entire length between the mall and Brant street. As of right now the grocery situation isn't great, with only a Walmart and a Goodness Me within walking distance, but hopefully we will see a major grocery store go into one of the developments across the road eventually.

It’s about time this lot, long used for storage, found a new purpose in life. But this proposal is going to be a lonely residential enclave for a while. Between Drury and Guelph there is no residential……only potential (including current large properties on Guelph Line). And to the west you only have the stalled (?) redevelopment on the western corner of Drury Lane and Fairview. And to the west of that, the current and building condos at the GO train station. I’m not sure why you would not develop this site to this height, but as commercial and office space (which is needed in the area).

Honestly pretty happy with this. 247sq. m retail space would be perfect for a little coffee shop or something. Although it would be nice to see a second retail space on the other side, it's understandable that they're being conservative about it considering the current lack of walkable residential around.

338 residential units, 423 parking spaces are technically required but only 370 are proposed, including 12 barrier-free spaces, with an additional 42 visitor spaces. Bicycle parking meets the minimum requirement of 189.
 
This is a nice looking concept in an area that is simply just run down and in need of a facelift. I look forward to hearing more about this project
