Lakeview is a connection of

neighbourhoods with views to

the lake and public access to the

shores and waters of Lake

Ontario.

The neighbourhoods of Lakeview

will be connected through a

network of parks and open

spaces.

The Lakeview Community Node

will be a focus for community

activities, and will serve the

surrounding neighbourhoods.

With an attractive mainstreet,

the node will be a prominent

location to live, work, shop, and

for the community to connect

and gather.
