I find it ironic that people describe Hespeler Road as the new Mississauga when its appearance has changed little from twenty years ago while Hurontario and Mavis look nothing like they did twenty years ago. Highway 10/Hurontario was a two-lane road when we moved out here. Not any more!
For any sort of rethinking of Hespeler Road, major surgery will be required. About half the strip malls would have to be replace by mixed or residential developments, a forest of trees would have to be planted, the city garage would have to be moved to make room behind the smaller buildings across from Cambridge Centre, and that dumpy flea market near Can-Amera would have to be obliterated from the face of the earth (just my opinions, you may not agree). They're trying to bring some residential building to Conestoga Boulevard, but I find it to be too little and too bland. The completed apartment building still looks like it's under construction. More needs to be done.
