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.

Famous quotes containing the words future and/or development:
“If nations always moved from one set of furnished rooms to another—and always into a better set—things might be easier, but the trouble is that there is no one to prepare the new rooms. The future is worse than the ocean—there is nothing there. It will be what men and circumstances make it.”
—Alexander Herzen (1812–1870)
“Dissonance between family and school, therefore, is not only inevitable in a changing society; it also helps to make children more malleable and responsive to a changing world. By the same token, one could say that absolute homogeneity between family and school would reflect a static, authoritarian society and discourage creative, adaptive development in children.”
—Sara Lawrence Lightfoot (20th century)
