Considering more than half of Mississauga City Centre is either parking lots and garages or undeveloped land, probably not much. Height, but lack of density and variety. One of the old office buildings got demolished recently, which doesn't help increase density or variety either.
The sidewalks of Buffalo and Cleveland aren't exactly packed either, and those downtowns lost much of their density to parking lots and garages. Mississauga still is at that same stage. Too much demand for parking because the population and jobs density is still low. Population of Mississauga City Centre in 2016 was still only 34,000, still less than Malton (population 37,500), for example. The travel distances in Mississauga are still too high for cycling, let alone for walking.
