Future Development
Today the Distillery District continues to undergo rapid change. The area has been brought into the modern era through its commitment to sustainable development and mixed-use utilization, all while maintaining its unique historic built form, and looks forward to additional integration of modern growth through the building of new condominiums. The new condo developments will be located at the south-east corner of the neighbourhood, bordering on Cherry Street and Tank House Lane. In addition to this, the PanAm Games Athletes’ Village will soon be joining the local area. Current plans place it just north-east of the Distillery proper at the intersection of Cherry and Mill Streets. This along with the rest of the West Don Lands redevelopment to the east will undoubtedly bring an influx of visitors and from many locations as well as new residents to the neighborhood.
