Yes it's rather mind-boggling that a suburb that previously was basically a shopping centre surrounded by thousands of homes sprawling to infinity, will eventually be home to dozens of scrapers unrivalled by most NA cities.
The mega-Oxford development is easily the most important as it will bring the first "real urbanism" to Missie, as opposed to the many tower/podiums scattered about.
We sometimes forget that
the south-eastern edge of the city is on the lake, another area under-going enormous change like this:
Port Credit’s Bright Water - approved and proposed elements of the $2-billion (3,000-residential-unit project),
include sixty seven acres of land to the city for parks, open space, cultural, and institutional uses.
