"Inner city" refers to a much larger area than "downtown". Mississauga lacks and always will lack the first as the area surrounding MCC is too suburban-modern to get a Victorian homes nabe vibe.

I should've clarified that Mississauga will also always be more suburban in character even near its core area and will likely never have a true inner city.

Kind of ironic you would say that as I think this plaza was built when Streetsville was still a rural village, not as a prototypical suburban plaza post-amalgamation. Even if that was the case, Streetsville was still geographically isolated for a long time after. And Unionville does have...

They finally put something on that empty 3D add platform on the media tower! About time!

True, but most of Mississauga, especially away from the main arteries, will always be suburban.

Well the second certainly doesn't roll off mine.

Highway 8 follows the Conestoga Pkwy.

That's length, not width. And I was talking about Tremaine functionally becoming and being redesignated as a new RR 25.

:D Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha!!

That second pic looks like their futureproofing for a Dixie LRT with a rail about to be laid! :D

Looks to be built overly wide. I wonder if Tremaine will be designated as the new "Highway 25".

I thought the 50 was a Highway 50 route. Looking at the BT website, I see it's not. But I'd think there'd be enough ridership along Highway 50 now for a full service route between Humber College and Bolton.

Why not just extend the Route 50 that goes to Humber College?

I wouldn't name a new street after her either; I'd rename City Centre Dr.

And it would sound better to use her last name only. Also, I'm surprised Celebration Sq. wasn't named after her. Civic squares are typically named after famous mayors.

By "pulled up" I thought you meant they were removed and the project cancelled.

One thing I find funny is if overhead wires are so ugly, why do so many cities want to preserve their trolley buses?

Wonder why the street is just Hwy. 8 and not Queenston Rd.? It is a continuation.

That was true even before Metro was amalgamated, and would likely still be true today even if the amalgamation never happened. Unlike Peel, Metro had DT Toronto as a collective core.

Way too wide? That's a fairly typical urban street width.
