Are they supplying all those mountains in the renderings too? Beautiful idea but that would be a lot of property to acquire and I would imagine quite the environmental impact

Well done!

The "mountains" in the distance actually exist. You're up in the Mount St Louis-Moonstone/Horseshoe Valley area of Ontario in those distant horizons.

@ben.thebean1 ; to add to @interchange42 's correct observation, let me add a streetview of the area which reflects the above.

This is immediately to the north of the site in question (Little Lake Drive) and the best streetview I could find that shows the rise in the topography across the Lake.

I would still argue the renderings are exaggerated quite a bit, I go up there all the time to ski and I would die to have mountains that big here haha. There's definitely some major elevation changes once you get up past Barrie but they have a full mountain range pictured, comparable to the Laurentians, that seems to be mainly east which makes even less sense.
This is way off topic though so I won't keep rambling, but because I'm just that sure I took a screenshot from Google Earth in 3D from the same spot as the one rendering, it's just horizon past the hills in the midground
