Not sure if this street name on the Penny Lane plan is a joke or a spelling mistake?
Weathering Heights

I like that their symbol is a bus. I'm guessing the public transport is going to suck pretty hard up there.

Suburban tracts always have such ironic names.

Not great frequency, but that's true of the mountain in general. Penny Lane appears to be sandwiched between Stonechurch and Rymal lines, with connections to downtown Burlington via the Parkdale, which loops at "Meadowlands East." Not loads in the way of super-walkable amenities in the immediate vicinity, at least compared to downtown. PL is wedged between Saltfleet District HS and Satellite Golf, a five-minute bike-ride from the Elfrida LCBO/Beer Store and a 10-minute bike ride from generic fare like Silvercity, Indigo/Starbucks, Booster Juice, Kelsey's/Milestones, etc as well as sui generis entries like the Starlite Drive-in or the Eramosa Karst CA. I guess you could do worse.

'Weathering heights.'

That's what we're dealing with here - complete knobs.

Though, when I think of it, perhaps it's an apt name. After a decade those cardboard boxes will be well weathered.

Anyone know anything about the Losani Highland development (south of Highland Rd east of the new Red hill extension) that's in the pre-construction phase? Like start times, any problems or delays due to landscape features or anything else??
