It must have been paradise for the homeowners for the past 40 years, and for their neighbors who benefited from the green space. Not surprised the property was bought by a developer though.
Side note/edit - this is not an "urban" development by any stretch of the imagination.
Yup it is very much suburban.
On the note of the green space, personally I would've preferred to see an extension of Georgian park as opposed to knocking down a bunch of trees and putting in a huge surface parking lot.
Doesn't meet the "suburban areas" definition we came up with last year when this forum was renamed.

Isn't Georgian Park on the other side of the street? In any case, the city would need to be proactive in shopping for park extension properties, by the time a developer has purchased it and is proposing a project is really too late.
