54 acre site (larger facility than kraft bakery), former Eatons and Home depot warehouse.

Some images from the arc plans collierscanada and spacelist.

Some images from google maps and google streetview of the current building.

Some crappy driveby cell shots from tonight, they have started demo, looks like quite the undertaking similar to kraft bakery.

Also found an interesting article on the history of this site: http://www.emeryvillagevoice.ca/The-Eaton’s-Warehouse

Really??

Nice to see such a large scale industrial project moving forward. Industry is probably the least "sexiest" of land usage but is so important to the economy of the city.

It is also an extremely low density land use. These things are popping up all over Brampton and Milton, but are far lower density than a traditional business park. They take up multiple hectares and often only employ a couple hundred people. This is a 20 hectare site, with 758 parking spots. Assuming 1-1 "jobs to parking spots", that is 38 jobs per hectare.

You'd think with the price of solar panels plummeting, it would be worthwhile to install some on the roofs here.

Day time pic, looks like they may be done demo?

Construction is done now. Any idea who the tenant is? Seems like the size is huge enough for Amazon but it's not them.

IIRC The TTC of all people. They are consolidating their storage needs here.

Are you sure? It seems like too prime of a location for TTC.

 

[shotgun2020]

Not sure I'd consider Sheppard & Arrow a "prime" location ...

 

[oceanbeat]

The TTC is only leasing building A.
