Collingwood is not the only community exploring such developments. The City of Toronto is exploring ideas for what to do with the lands around their waterfront silos, with the re-use of the silo structures themselves remaining a more complex notion. Apparently there is quite a lot of structure within the silos which makes the creation of floor space very difficult and cost prohibitive.
From the City of Toronto WEB SITE:
"The City of Toronto continues to look for innovative ways to preserve its history and provide a legacy for future generations, while making the most of this prominent part of Toronto's landscape and real estate.
In December 2009, City Council approved a two-phased plan to develop the iconic Canada Malting complex and preserve its most important heritage components as part of the waterfront's revitalization".
