For the naysayers WHERE do you WANT the growth to happen?
"Walking distance" to Milton Transit - Go Transit Hub.
Milton is a Commuter Town, it would be better to keep the high-density areas nearby the Go station, which also is closer to the 401 than Derry/On25.
Derry Rd is already the most congested road in Milton, probably because it is one of only two ways to go to "Milton West" (West of the railway / Bronte Road).
I'm not against the project, but I think high density areas belong near to the Transit Hub of towns.
There IS a proposal to build condos over by Superstore
Again we got the screaming about NIMBY & think of the congestion
I'd also argue that taking a Milton bus from 25/Derry to GO is a rather easy thing to do
Most people commute far greater distances in most other cities (Mississauga, Brampton, Vaughan, Hamilton etc)
The main reason Derry has such terrible congestion is due to 401
25 exit was never meant to handle volume so many are driving across Milton to/from JSP
Once Tremaine interchange is finished there should be a drastic decrease in traffic across town, even during rush hour

What boggles me is totally clueless individuals like you. It is not 16 stories, it is 25, 20 and 16 stories highrises.
How difficult it is for you to read the title of this thread?
It seems to be less difficult to draw false assumptions about those who aren't just clueless, we take it all veggies.
Actually bylaw prevents the 25 story tower (I could point out how clueless you are at this point)
And if they allow it then so what really?

Only few are against of condos here. Condos are part of the new and old Milton already. Old Milton has new condos already build and more are coming.
Bull ship
There are at least 4 threads on this very board about "not here"
Wherever condos are built the villagers have the flaming brands ready to protest
Too many hick farmers who are afraid of towers after watching Lord of the Rings one too many times

People who have purchased in areas nearby with caution did checked and were told by town it is 10 stories maximum on this location.
Most of the residents I knew and asked about it are not against of this limit proposed by the town for this location.
In the area???
Unless I am blind I do not see any homes anywhere close to this proposed site
Who are these residents in the area?
(and again I will point back to this very thread where Rick himself stated they EXPECTED 20 stories, so um where exactly did you or these phantom landowners get assurances for 10 stories?)
