Thanks! I am guessing that refers to land they will widen the park area with as the old mid-rise rentals beside it get infilled and/or redeveloped, I'd be surprised if it referred to lengthening the trail southwestwards.

No details on their exact locations yet, but Windmill and Leader Lane Developments will be working together with R-Hauz to build three cross-laminated timber residential buildings in the Mimico area near the GO station:

This was my first time along the old commercial stretch of Mimico Avenue. Felt like I had just cycled into a small town. It's a cute strip that could use a nice coffee shop and bistro.

Needs proper streetscaping in the worst way (particularly trees, but also pedestrian lights and nice sidewalks.)
While the road width is already narrow'ish (~7M) this section of street where the storefronts are is functioning as a one-way, but with parking permitted.
Even if you retain the parking you could probably spare 1M to add to the sidewalk; but I think I'd rather nix the parking just for that one block stretch, and widen the sidewalk by 2M on the primary side (east/north) on the opposing side I would just try to get the homeowners to take a free front yard tree from the City.
A 2M widening would allow trees and maybe even some small patios. I would do the same for the flanking blvd on Queens.

I was looking into this today after seeing the Krispy Kreme article on Retail Insider. It looks like this was approved in June 2023:

That's too bad...I may take a bike ride there this weekend to see what's up since it's going to be nice out. Been looking forward to this location forever!
