Every time I see the masterplan, I want to like it. But it looks like such a boring enclave with the commercial uses kept to the very edge along Lakeshore. There's also the strange compartmentalization of the housing types, with a few rows of townhouses, a few condos of one style, and a few condos of another style. There doesn't appear to be any central or showpiece public space.
The end result looks neither masterplanned nor organic. By contrast,
Lakeview Village is on a whole other level with its coherent mid-rise topology, confident mix of uses throughout the district, and fine-grained urban design. Unfortunately, it's also next door to a large sewage treatment plant. So you get the sad compromise of Mississauga's duelling waterfront megaprojects: one has a great location in Port Credit but a mediocre and forgettable masterplan. The other has an an exceptional and exciting masterplan but mediocre location.
