I like how it's progressing, but what an ugly, utilitarian-sounding name. I've had computer chipsets with nicer monikers than that.

They should come up with something more evocative. Something like "No-Rob-Fords-here-ville," or "This-is-the-density-your-mother-in-Milton-warned-you-about-land."

One of the new restaurants in the Delta Southcore is calling itself "SoCo"..

Maybe that's something the area can go with..
