The Financialization of Housing:
Isn't it obvious that the planned re-development by Queenscorp at 4099 Erin Mills Parkway is primarily designed for investors? It is not really designed for actual residences for people.
Families don't want to live in shoeboxes.
Notwithstanding the apparent inactivity at 4099, THIS APPLICATION IS STILL PENDING. We need to actively continue to oppose the Application. These units do not benefit families that need housing and the project severely hurts the carefully planned community of Erin Mills.
Original application Fall 2022:
Queenscorp (Erin Mills) Inc.
File can be found at:
Original Development application includes 5 residential buildings with heights of 10, 8, 6, 6 and 6 storeys, 7 blocks of 4 storey stacked townhouses containing a total of 703 units, and 776 square metres of commercial space.
