General Suburban Updates and Rumours
(04-12-2017, 05:21 PM)Markster Wrote: When you get down to it, I don't see too much difference between building residential here than building residential on Hespeler, which is ultimately planned.  The only real difference is that this location is about 1km away from the future ION LRT stop.

I would like to see greenspace as part of the proposal, as this is one of the last significant parcels of greenspace in the area, as well as pedestrian access to SmartCentre without trekking all the way down to Pinebush.  A bridge over the 401 would certainly be a good idea. Though I don't imagine you'll be able to get the developer to pay for it.

Definitely access to smart centres as well.

I am unsure of the freedom that council has, can they not predicate the zone change on paying for (or paying for some of) a ped bridge?
