Things are starting to take shape at Union Village an exciting new community in Unionville, located in the city of Markham. The master-planned community is a joint venture by Minto Communities and Metropia.
Our team is busy laying down the groundwork for the community that will be taking shape along the welcoming streetscapes at Kennedy Road and 16th Avenue. It won’t be long before the vision for this area’s new identity comes to life, creating a master-planned community ready to redefine and elevate the entire neighbourhood.
Specialized sediment-control measures are in place along the west edge of the property, adjacent to the valley lands. These procedures help keep eroded soil on the construction site, ensuring it won’t flow into nearby streams. Topsoil stripping is also nearing completion, and the areas that will be impacted by excavation, road-building and equipment use are currently being prepped. The export of the topsoil not required for re-use is also well underway. The cut-to-fill operation is progressing smoothly as planned, and the import of needed material will begin shortly.
Minto Communities and Metropia can always been counted on to underline the importance of family, inspire social purpose, and bring professional excellence and ethical responsibility to all the construction enterprises they work on. The pursuit of quality and excellence continues to drive us all forward, our master-planned communities redefining the meaning of home.
