FAQs
Do you have more questions?
How will the District benefit existing communities in the area?
A Community Development Plan for the entire Secondary Plan area will guide future investments in community development in the area, both on lands owned by Canada Lands and by others. We have also engaged with local community representatives’ groups to share information and seek feedback about how the District can have a positive impact, and will continue to facilitate future audience-specific discussions.
How will this district create connections to the surrounding areas?
The District Plan will include a network of a new rail underpass, new streets, greenways, and other open spaces that will connect the many points of interest in and around the District -- with a focus on walking, cycling, transit and green infrastructure.
What local economic opportunities will be created?
Over 6,000 jobs are anticipated to be created in the Downsview West District, once complete (in addition to the construction jobs created during its development). Opportunities for local economic development will be pursued in conjunction with the City, guided by the Community Development Plan for the Secondary Plan area.
