Develop the hell out of it. This would be a great place to build many towers for people who are 401 commuters. This would bring density and make the development viable.

Yep, it would be a very appealing location for people who drive east for work. A new secondary plan as The85 suggested, with mixed usages, is the answer: townhomes and a number of towers, a Go bus hub, and right-sized retail.
