Please see below for details about an upcoming Community Information Meeting for a new build by Medallion Properties at Dundas and Hewitt Streets. We would strongly encourage residents with an interest in redevelopment in Old East Village to look closely at the Medallion proposal. Without rendering an opinion on the merits of the proposal at this point, we would point out that that this building has a very large footprint (‘base’) that seems incongruent with the City’s preference for point towers with significant step-backs from the street level podium. The initial renderings, especially along Hewitt Street, portray a building that could be seen by some as monolithic and out-of-scale.

For additional details please see the Current Land Use Application on the City of London Website

The Old East Village Community Association wishes to draw your attention to a public meeting about major infrastructure improvements that will occur over a two year period, on Dundas Street between Adelaide Street and Ontario Street ,from 2020 to 2022. Infrastructure improvements are also scheduled for English Street, in 2021.

We would welcome your attendance at this meeting to learn more about the initiatives. City staff will be prepared to hear your comments and answer your questions ,including the management of traffic that will be diverted from Dundas Street to Queens Avenue during the construction period.

The Manager of the English Street Infrastructure Renewal Project will also be on hand to answer early questions.
