Lakeview Village Development Set to Revitalize Mississauga’s Waterfront

Mississauga City Council recently approved an agreement that advances the construction of Lakeview Village, a new development on Mississauga’s former industrial waterfront. This project was originally zoned for 8,050 units, but in late 2023, an enhanced Ministerial Zoning Order was issued which increased the number of units to 16,000.

In April 2024, the Minister of Municipal Affairs and Housing issued an order requiring the City and Lakeview Community Partners Limited (LCPL) to enter into agreements that address matters including community benefits and affordable housing. The City and LCPL have been working closely with the Office of the Provincial Land and Development Facilitator to ensure the increased number of homes will be built in an appropriate way.

One of the key components of the enhanced development is a joint commitment to prioritize the reconstruction of the Lakeview Pier to ensure its timely advancement as both an accessible public space and an iconic Canadian landmark.

Aird & Berlis, led by Patrick J. Harrington, represented LCPL throughout the Lakeview Village project, including site acquisition, development applications, advocacy, approvals and now implementation. The project is one of the largest and most unique new growth developments in all of the GTA.
