Welcome to Lakeview
Lakeview is one of the most anticipated up-and-coming communities in South Mississauga. Located east of Port Credit, Lakeview is in the city’s southeast corner, stretching from just north of the QEW at Queensway down to Lake Ontario. This growing waterfront area is surrounded by sandy beaches, quiet bays, miles of walking paths, and scenic hiking trails.
Along the shore of Lake Ontario, Lakeview is the home of the Port Credit Yacht Club and the Lakefront Promenade Marina and was once the historical site of the Long Branch Aerodrome, the first commercial air training airport in Canada. What was once a secluded area has now grown into a rediscovered, expanding, and diverse community. Lakeview is ideal for those who love the idea of living near the water but want the urban feel of a contemporary neighbourhood.

People & Lifestyle
Lakeview is being hailed as a "transformative" and revolutionary mixed-use waterfront community that will serve as a global model and lively destination for sustainable development. Sprawling across 177 acres, the Lakeview community offers innovative developments, year-round recreational programming, extensive pathways, convenient local transit, and diverse housing options. It's also filled with retail, education, housing, and office space that will continue evolving and growing as the project continues.
What, exactly, makes Lakeview so special? This exceptional "smart" community will connect people like never before to the surrounding Lake Ontario. Combining open space with cultural and retail amenities, Lakeview combines all the best attributes of waterfront living with residential beauty and significant support to all inhabitants.
Dining, Entertainment & Shopping
Lakeview is conveniently located near grocery stores, bakeries, banks, wine stores, boutique shops, and many gourmet restaurants. Noteworthy are the Lakeview Golf Course, the Lakeview Branch Library, the Port Credit and Long Branch GO Trains, and two excellent high schools: Cawthra Park Secondary School (with its specialty Music and Arts program) and St. Paul Secondary School.
Many beautifully-maintained parks run along Lake Ontario, including the Lakeview Park, Waterworks Park, and Main Curtis Park, all of which have a variety of baseball diamonds, picnic areas, soccer fields, splash pads, playgrounds, and volleyball courts—perfect for families to relax and spend the day.
As Lakeview continues to develop, residents will notice they have access to multiple local transit spots, and they’ll be a short distance from the Dixie Outlet Mall, which has numerous big-box stores and small shops.
Things to Do
Because of Lakeview's prime location, most activities in the area are primed for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers. The site is home to seven lakefront parks, neighbourhood parks, an extensive waterfront trail, and the idyllic lakefront promenade. It's also home to two different golf courses.
The Lakefront Promenade is a significant and gorgeous waterfront system connecting the parks and green spaces running from Port Credit to Ebotichoke. In addition to the interconnected waterways, the promenade extends along the Ontario Waterfront Trail, taking you past two marinas. Each of the seven primary parks in Lakeview offers various exceptional, state-of-the-art amenities, including baseball diamonds, boat docks, splash pads, picnic areas, and more.
As Lakeview continues to develop, expect to see even more activities and shops pop up throughout the area, including seasonal shops and retail options offering boat and bike rentals.
Schools
School-aged children in Lakeview will attend the Cawthra Park Secondary School or St. Paul Secondary School. Both are well-respected and exceptional educational institutions.
