Mississauga is a good example of where density has really amounted to nothing remotely urbane from emerging.

What are you talking about?!? This is just the beginning of the urbanization of Mississauga City Centre and I think the dozen or so towers have had a tremendous effect on creating a sense of urbanism in the middle of sprawlville. Streetfront retail was pretty much unheard six years ago let alone open 24 hours within walking distance. I keenly await the next twenty years with the addition of six dozen more towers and the urbanization of Square One and the main thoroughfares. These large scale, one developer masterplans will never make a true downtown if that's what you're get at.
Daniels has a great masterplan (architecture notwithstanding) and both Pinnacle and Amacon follow suit.
