What Should the New Waterfront Parks at Brightwater Look Like?

Official title: Future parks at Brightwater

Open Community Planning Environment & Climate Housing & Communities
Mississauga is planning 18 acres of new parkland on a former industrial site in Port Credit. The city wants to know what features residents want in these waterfront parks. A survey phase just wrapped up with 2,100 responses, but more chances to weigh in are coming as designs evolve.

Why This Matters

Live in Port Credit or nearby? These parks will be your new backyard. The 72-acre Brightwater development is also bringing nearly 3,000 new homes to the area. How the parks are designed will shape whether this feels like a livable neighbourhood or just another condo cluster.

What Could Change

The city will use feedback to finalize designs for 18 acres of parkland, including a 13-acre waterfront park connecting to existing parks. Features like playgrounds, trails, sports facilities, or natural areas could be prioritized based on what residents want.

Key Issues

  • What features should be prioritized in the new waterfront parks?
  • Does feedback from previous engagement sessions still reflect community priorities?
