Lakeview Village project
Lakeview Village is a 177-acre site on Mississauga’s eastern waterfront designed to be a mixed-use community.
The redevelopment project aims to transform the former Lakeview Power Generating Station site into a vibrant, sustainable and interconnected neighbourhood. It is set to result in:
- A total of 16,000 residential units, including 1,200 affordable or attainable units (shared equity mortgage units and limited number of market rental units)
- Over 45 acres of parkland and six parks with natural heritage features that help maintain the ecosystem and provide clean air and water to residents
- An extension of the Trans Canada Trail through the Lakeview Village Waterfront Park system, providing key trail connections to parks within Lakeview Village (funded by a $17 million investment from the National Active Transportation Fund)
- An iconic pier that will be the longest on Canada’s great lakes and a year-round destination for locals and visitors
- More than 1.5 million square feet of employment space in the area’s Innovation Corridor for 9,000 jobs in research and development of innovative solutions
- New local jobs in construction and system operations
- Decreased greenhouse gas emissions
District energy
Lakeview Village will be powered through the district energy system. The system will be fueled by natural gas when the buildings are first occupied in early 2029. By 2034, it’s expected to use effluent (treated wastewater) from nearby G.E Booth Water Resource Recovery Facility. Once fully operational, it’s positioned to be the first of its kind in Ontario and the largest in Canada.
The district energy system for Lakeview Village will be owned, operated and maintained by Enwave. Enwave will also:
- Build pipes and infrastructure on city land and construct a district energy building to operate the system.
- Conduct preliminary engineering and design to leverage treated wastewater as the main fuel source for the district energy system.
Project owner and partners
Lakeview Community Partners Limited (LCPL) purchased the project site from Ontario Power Generation in 2017. Since then, LCPL has worked with the City to develop the Lakeview Village development master plan, which sets the project framework.
Project partners include TACC Construction Limited, Greenpark Group, CCI Development Group, Branthaven and Argo Development Corporation.
Construction updates
- Construction is underway on site services for the entire project site, including building infrastructure for water, sanitary and hydro services, storm drainage, asphalt and other road works.
- On October 7, 2024, Tridel and LCPL launched construction for the community’s first residential building called Harbourwalk.
- Crews are starting foundation and construction work on the district energy operations centre and installing piping network and service connections to all development blocks.
