The Simcoe Shores Development is a Planned Infill Community located on the shoreline of Lake Simcoe in the City of Barrie an hours drive north of Toronto. This project was developed in two phases between 1998 and 2005. This was a very challenging project from a design perspective given the unique combination of environmental site features that include EP forest, the Hewitts Creek corridor and lakeshore environments all of which carry significant preservation policies. In addition to integrating single family residential housing on to the challenging topography the design team successfully integrated storm water management facilities and parkland features with a recreation trail system that connects this unique development to the greater Bayshore secondary plan area.
