A vacant property in north Oakville is the Sky Property Group’s proposed site for five 18-storey towers and supporting amenities.

The initiative, dubbed Neyagawa Crossings, is located on the northeast corner of Neyagawa Boulevard and William Halton Parkway.

The developer, Burnhamthorpe/Oakville Holdings Inc., recently presented the Town of Oakville with zoning amendment applications for the project and, according to staff, the application proposes:

• Five highrise residential towers, each 18 storeys.
• Three‑storey street walls and six‑storey podiums.
• Ground‑floor commercial uses to support an active streetscape.

The nearly seven-hectare site is part of the Neyagawa Urban Core, a designated strategic growth area supported through town and regional official plan policies. It was designed by ���ڴǰ���. The estimated project cost was not disclosed.

“The application is currently listed as an active development application, with a full set of technical studies submitted in December 2025 as part of submission one. These include environmental assessments, servicing studies, transportation analyses, planning justification and renderings,” said a Town of Oakville spokesperson.

According to a report by Town of Oakville senior planner Robert Thun, the development would feature 898 residential units that include 508 one-bedroom units, 352 two-bedroom units and 38 three-bedroom units. There would also be 973 parking spaces in three underground levels, 634 bicycle parking spots and 2,400 square metres of ground floor retail space.

The site has 55 metres of frontage along William Halton Parkway and approximately 433 metres of frontage on Neyagawa Boulevard, extending up to Highway 407.

It is surrounded by Highway 407 to the north, vacant agricultural lands to the east, William Halton Parkway and a future low-rise residential and commercial development to the south, and Neyagawa Boulevard along with a proposed mixed-use development, anchored by two 15-storey residential towers, to the west.

The plan calls for the development to be built in two phases with the southerly three towers coming first, followed by the two towers in the north.

Lands have been set aside for the future 407 Transitway along the northern boundary of the site

Three towers would reach a maximum height of 68.05 metres, while the remaining two would step slightly lower to 66.45 metres. The towers would be served by two elevators each for a total of 10 lifts, equating to approximately one elevator for every 90 units.

According to the Sky Property Group website, “The design blends contemporary architecture with thoughtful massing to create a distinctive urban presence visible from the 407 corridor.”

In recent meetings, Oakville councillors have expressed concerns about the proposal’s level of density, adequacy of parking and lack of parkland in the project’s plans.

“We’re trying to build a list of issues for staff to evaluate in determining what their recommendation will be at a future meeting,” said Town of Oakville Mayor Rob Burton at a recent Planning and Development Council meeting intended to receive public input and identify issues for staff review.

In return, the developer plans to continue to refine the project, that, if approved, would begin construction in five to seven years, or perhaps sooner if the market permits.
