5 most unique features of Port Credit’s new waterfront community in Mississauga

It’s always exciting to see what each new residential community will bring to Mississauga, and it looks like Port Credit’s Brightwater will bring high-tech convenience and a whole lot of green.

Registration is open now for Bridge House, the next phase of this brand new waterfront community, which is being developed with a modern resort-like experience in mind. Bridge House includes a set of towers connected by glass bridges, providing breathtaking views of Port Credit and Lake Ontario.

The community will offer an abundance of new homes and commercial opportunities, including condos, townhomes, and more than 350,000 square feet of retail and office space. Bringing together commercial and residential land won’t just add convenience for the future residents of Brightwater, but also help the environment by keeping all necessities within walking distance.

Here are the five most unique features of this highly anticipated new community:

1. 18 acres of open space, including five new public parks.

For outdoorsy residents who want to see more green spaces in the city, you’ll be pleased to hear that Brightwater’s development will include 18 acres of open space, including the creation of five new public parks just steps from the shoreline.

2. New waterfront trails connecting to Port Credit’s existing trail system.

It’s never been a better time to be a walker, jogger, or cyclist. In addition to new parks and public spaces, Brightwater will add new multi-purpose trails with waterfront access and connections to the already extensive bike trail system in Port Credit. These trails are perfect for connecting Brightwater to surrounding amenities, getting some exercise in, or just going for a leisurely stroll.

Through the integration of public parks and multipurpose trails, the new community is reclaiming a portion of the waterfront for Port Credit that has sat idle for years – offering a blend of modern comfort while ensuring residents are never far from beautiful nature spots and the great outdoors.

3. A modern resort-like lifestyle with high-tech amenities.

In Brightwater’s master-planned community, connectivity starts in the home but extends to common amenities, Brightwater’s streets, and beyond. From unlimited high speed internet to smart thermostats and smart outlets, the future-forward technology allows for a seamless and highly comfortable way of life.

Other high-tech features include a smart door lock, smart parking access, smart parcel storage, EV charging stations, and car-sharing options. Additionally, Brightwater has its own mobile app which carries the latest information to residents daily.

Brightwater will feature a variety of on-site retail including banks, grocery stores, an LCBO location and other essential services, ensuring residents can get much of their shopping done without even needing to leave their community.

4. The only community in Mississauga that is a LEED Neighbourhood (ND) candidate.

Not only is Brightwater the first new waterfront community of this scale in Mississauga, it is also the only community in Mississauga that is a LEED ND candidate. That means there are environmental and sustainable initiatives implemented in every step of the building process: Green roofs, newly planted trees, energy efficiency and low-impact development all contribute to Brightwater being one of the city’s most eco-friendly communities.

Brightwater integrates digital and technological innovations, energy conservation strategies, and careful master planning of the land. The result is a community that thrives with reduced costs, energy savings, and a lower environmental impact, highlighting Brightwater as a leader in innovation and sustainability.

5. Located in the heart of Port Credit, with waterfront access.

Being located in the heart of Port Credit is a perk all on its own – the community is close to all amenities, beautiful nature spots, and some of the city’s best businesses and restaurants, while also not being too far away from downtown Toronto and Oakville. Whether you’re shopping along Lakeshore or enjoying a view of the lake, Brightwater lets you enjoy waterfront living to the fullest extent.

The developing Hurontario LRT will connect Brightwater residents to Mississauga City Centre and Square One Shopping Centre – in addition to Cooksville, Courtney Park, and the Brampton Gateway bus terminal – and will considerably reduce travel time when compared to driving.

Development for Brightwater’s unique Bridge House condominium is currently underway – residents interested in potentially being a part of this unique new community can register now.
