The City of Pickering, just east of Toronto, is preparing for massive growth projected during the next 15 to 20 years. Currently a community of 90,000, its population is projected to double during that time.
With the development of a new casino to anchor its mixed-use 240-acre Durham Live district, plans to intensify its core and create a true downtown, as well as several other major projects under construction or in planning stages, it’s a hotbed of activity.
