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.
