So just heard about this development in London:

https://www.evepark.ca/

Very interesting for some reasons, and less for others:

+ Dense development
+ Not car landscape focused
+ EV Car sharing and sustainable building development
+ Larger units for families?

- Edge of the city, limited transit, zero high frequency transit, and long biking distances means I think many will still end up driving.
- Location is far away from any mixed use development meaning, limited walkability.

I'm excited that this type of thing is being proposed, but I feel it's missing important pieces of a complete community (mixed use, etc.) as well as high frequency transit, and walkable businesses.
