The subtle facade sculpting shows up in the massing diagram.

50 Eglinton West | 194.2m | 58s | Madison Group | Turner Fleischer l pre-construction

Originally proposed at 37 and 35 storeys, now a resubmission is asking for a big jump in height for both towers (now 58 and 46 storeys) and a large increase in residential units (from 844 to 1206 units).

Markham

UnionCity South | 159.55m | 49s | Metropia | Arcadis l site prep (?)

Move over Mississauga… Markham in the house showing how she can build crazy stuff in fields too ;-).

I thought this was just a vision exercise but there’s early work underway on site lol. 49, 42, 42, 39, 35 and 35 storey towers with more than 2000 residential units, retail and park.

UT

There’s machines doing stuff (including shoring rigs) so who knows.

Love the name: "Metropia". Is there a office component to this, or is it just residential and retail? Having office in those podiums would make this a more 24-7 development.

isaidso · #**4790** Posted **Yesterday, 10:41 PM**

It's listed as Residential, Commercial, Public Space/Park and just east of the CN-Metrolinx-GO Stouffville Rail Corridor.

Holy moly - wth is going on in Canada?

Places I've never heard of launching 10 figure superdevelopments. This looks like something for Vegas.

Also Mississauga going to be a top 10 tower city in North America before you know it as well.

Canadian cities have always had a lot of high-rise construction. High-rise construction in Mississauga already peaked in the 70s. Markham is just going through what Mississauga went through 40 years ago.

Number of high-rise buildings in Mississauga, by decade
1960s: 20
1970s: 80
1980s: 60
1990s: 55
2000s: 42
2010s: 39
2020s: 22

As you can see, the pace of high-rise construction in Mississauga has been steadily declining for the past 50 years. So it is very unlikely to ever surpass Miami, let alone enter the top 10 in North America.

Altoic · #**4793** Posted **Today, 5:49 AM**

I've always thought of Mississauga as Fort Lauderdale and Toronto as Miami. It's the only way to think about it in my mind! On another note Toronto will definitely surpass Chicago this decade or next decade... which will warrant some unique responses.
