Buildings are reaching higher into the sky as municipalities and developers rush to fill the housing needs of those who live in Halton Region.
Each area has been mandated by the Provincial government to build a certain number of housing units by the year 2031 and to do so, several projects of high density are taking shape which with their heights, will change to the skylines of each of these communities.
