Buy a piece of land and build a basic house. Buy a shack and live in it. Are you suggesting there’s no shacks in Peterborough? Anyways that’s how you get basic housing. You’re allowed to build whatever you want. Developers only build luxury because that’s where the money is.Sure, if they only allow builder basic homes and double the population. The solution to our housing crisis is building low cost housing.
I am tired of driving around and seeing new development with the terms 'luxury' or 'executive' or any other high end words. At this point, all developments should say "affordable" or 'budget friendly' or other words to say that housing can be affordable.Buy a piece of land and build a basic house.

Well developers are trying to market their product and make as much profit as possible. They are not a charity.I am tired of driving around and seeing new development with the terms 'luxury' or 'executive' or any other high end words.

I know those are the current options. Just like the current fastest way to get around the Corridor is a plane. Does not mean it should be. Status quo is never good.Well developers are trying to market their product and make as much profit as possible.
If you want something affordable buy used. Buy something from some sr who never renovated and recently went to meet their maker. There are options.

I‘m not sure you are aware of this, but most of the people commenting here have placed @micheal_can on their „Ignore“ list to save themselves from having to see his compulsive attempts to hijack all somewhat rail-related threads here and steer the discussions around his personal interests. Unfortunately, there is no function yet to also automatically hide any responses to people we‘re ignoring, which is why I would like to ask you to consider resisting the urge to reply to every single such attempt. Even if you are telling him how delirious he is, you are still playing his eversame trolling game by responding at all.Well developers are trying to market their product and make as much profit as possible.

Has anybody yet mentioned how CP would fit in with the plans, given that it would appear that some level of the active Havelock corridor would be used for HFR? Obviously, not much is known about the project just yet, but just wanted to hear other thoughts.
How would you fit a HSR line through to Kingston and beyond?I find it quite interesting the cities like Kingston and London are being kicked into the boonies, so we can run a high speed line through Peterborough. Makes zero sense.
Population Peterborough = 86KI find it quite interesting the cities like Kingston and London are being kicked into the boonies, so we can run a high speed line through Peterborough. Makes zero sense.
Population Peterborough = 86K
Population Kingston 137K
We aren't talking several orders of magnitude difference between these two cities.
Also, Kingston is only 2.5hrs to Toronto by VIA, so it's still within a comfortable distance of TO even without HSR.
As for London, perhaps extending the line there would be a future consideration.
