This information has already been posted in the Hawthorne Village forums but will recap it here in the Blog.

(1) Toronto Star News article about the June 21-25 Mattamy Hawthorne Village lineup in the July 3rd Saturday edition. You can view the article online here.
(2) New 85 acre park being built near Hawthorne Village. Here's a PDF version of the Park Map. Here's a Milton Champion newspaper article about the future park.
(3) Map showing future location of the Walmart & Canadian Tire being built by James Snow Pky & Steeles Ave.
(4) More Hawthorne Village line-up pictures from June 21-25 provided by Tim & Sandra.
(5) Today Mattamy started to call people who have "reservations" to come in and get their Purchase Agreements. This pertains to people who did reservations earlier because at the time Mattamy didn't have purchase agreements finalized yet. Dave & Laurie (#1's in line) did theirs today.

Also it's interesting to mention that from August 2003 to July 2004, Mattamy has increased the prices of their homes in Hawthorne Village by about 10%. Here's an example using the Tothburg II Elevation C that we've been tracking.

August, 2003January 19, 2004June 22-25, 2004June 26, 2004June 27, 2004
$376,990$382,990$394,990$404,990$414,990


It's now July 5th, and the Tothburg 2, along with other 56' lots are sold out. I wonder if Mattamy will increase the prices again this month when they say more 56's will be released? Supply and demand. We're happy that we reserved our lot when we did. But it's still surprising how fast the prices have changed. The others (semis, towns, 36s, 46s, etc..) have had similar price increases around the same range.
