I had a look at the Liberty Village Townhouses on Google Street View and I couldn't figure out what was so great about them that Dawn Victoria Homes had to say that they would be modeled after them. Then I realized the major design element of the development is that there is no surface parking.

In Google Street View I saw this and thought it was ok, nothing special, there must be parking in behind, why is Dawn Victoria modeling 290 Barton after this?...

Then I saw the entrance to the garage...

I zoomed back out to the aerial and realized all the streets between the townhouses were just pedestrian walkways...

This is what's so great about the Liberty Village Townhouses. No driveways, garages, or car filled streets, just quiet pedestrian walkways and parks...

Compare that ^ to this typical Hamilton townhouse development and you can see what is so great about the Liberty Village Townhouses...

If that is what Dawn Victoria Homes is planning on doing, then I can't wait for this development.
