Cornell, Ontario
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cornell is a new community being developed in northeast Markham, Ontario and bounded by Highway 407, 16th Avenue, Ninth Line, and the Don Cousens Parkway.
Most of the houses are townhomes, semi-detached or detached houses with garages at the rear. The communities are built with central amentities in order to contain suburban sprawl. Cornell was seen by the Markham Town Council as a way to deter the ongoing sprawl by encouraging residential density.
The development is not far from the proposed Pickering Airport and once one of the sites for landfills in the Greater Toronto Area.
Transportation links to the community include GO Transit, Highway 407 (Ontario), York Region Transit (including vivayork).
