Nestled at the corner of Lakeshore Blvd. and Etobicoke Creek in Mississauga, Aquaview is a condo complex that has sprung up from nowhere. Featuring a 16 floor view over the lake and what looks like it will be a nice open floor terrace to the one side, Aquaview caught my attention since it stands taller than most of the suburban homes around it.

Liberty Village, an area once filled with industry, pollution, and soil contamination, has made a dramatic turnaround in the last decade; it is now home to town homes, loft apartments, and towering condo buildings. And it these condos that catch the eyes of people and make them realize this dramatic turnaround for the former brownfield area.

A new condo development along the Toronto waterfront called my name one Saturday afternoon. I heeded that call, climbed 36 floors to the top, all for the view from the top. Construction wise, there wasn't much to see other than building supplies here and there, but it had a great view.
