Call it the first step in a whole new city vision.
With Southside Townhomes, i2 Developments is looking to introduce the homebuyers of Brampton to a new type of residential offering — all while transforming a vacant pocket at Steeles Avenue and Hurontario Street. For the City of Brampton itself, though, this is just the start.
Brampton has seen a lot of growth over the past two decades, but much of it has been in the way of single detached houses. That doesn’t mean something new can’t come in and shake things up every now and then, though.
An innovative new housing development that’s the first of its kind is getting built in south Brampton and it could set a new precedent in the city.

Southside is one of the newest communities being built on the footprint of Uptown Brampton, which is part of the city’s Vision 2040, a long-term vision that will reinvent Brampton. The plan includes such key transformations as: complete living (including model new neighbourhoods); everything connected (transit network, new core loop, walking and cycling networks); beauty brought back (streets for people, trees everywhere, designed communities, handsome buildings); and nature brought back (new eco-park and sustainability built into everything).
According to a fact sheet sent by the developer, Southside Towns will consist of 103 luxurious, contemporary townhomes, each with a private terrace and underground parking, located in the part the city known as Uptown Brampton, a new urban centre envisioned as part of the city's new Vision 2040.
