Inspired by @_StephenVelasco's models of future growth for Toronto, I was inspired to try something similar for Mississauga.
Earlier this year, I started exploring how to make that happen.
Over the past few months, I learned Blender from scratch and built most of the project myself, using downloaded models, including houses, alongside my own modelling, City data and project drawings.

The transformation of Toronto’s #waterfront is a testament to our city’s impressive economic development - from a small trading post in the 1700s to an international business hub. With 6 KM of magnificent waterfront, #Toronto has an opportunity to create something extraordinary!

Toronto is building a massive new neighbourhood in the former industrial Port Lands, and the neighbourhood has provision for dedicated transit space - but it won't have electric transit from day one, and that's something we need with Waterfront East LRT.

Thanks to Rahul Gupta at @NRUpublishing for writing about the opportunity to increase housing density through the Port Lands - alongside the #WaterfrontEastLRT, of course.

The Mayor's Housing Action Plan item at City Council tomorrow recommends re-evaluating Port Lands density. The @WaterfrontBIA has written in support, including details on where the #WaterfrontEastLRT will support the Port Lands full potential, including housing.
