This area consisting of a handful of lots has some decent looking buildings, but the space in between them is a disaster. Because this is across from the Oakville GO station, it's planned to be redeveloped with a bunch of condos. There are a couple proposal boards up and we know the old Taco Bell/50s diner was demolished a few years ago. Across that, on the other side of Trafalgar, they demolished the mechanic, bike store and Enterprise a couple of years ago. Even the nice looking Swiss Chalet and Harvey's might be torn down. A really long time ago a school might have existed there, which possibly turned into Hikers Haven? The soccer field is fenced off and totally overgrown, but one goal still stands.
Because the landlords know this will all be redeveloped, they do the bare minimum to maintain it. And my kids' old daycare and camp is right there. My employer also lends on one of the office buildings there.
The parking lots are overgrown with weeds, look like they got hit by artillery, have garbage everywhere, and sometimes you see transients stopping by. There are a couple of small social housing houses between there and the GO station.
Those beer bottles are beside the daycare. The cube of water I really hope was utilized properly and used for irrigation or something. I do know it was gone the next day as I was bringing my daughter to camp everyday. I did have a look and didn't see any expiry date. I'd love to know how and why that ended up there. Like did the restaurant have their own forklift?
That bench beside the dumpsters and pallets, that is the office building's property and that is where Rockstar Games Toronto is located. You always see some video game looking people smoking there, dressed in shorts and black hoodies. I suppose their surroundings is good inspiration for developing Grand Theft Auto.
