In this case, the building was already fully enclosed, but Morguard created a ceremonial glass plaque\u00a0and\u00a0guests were invited to sign it, Brian Athey, senior vice president, development at Morguard, told INSAUGA Canada.<\/p>\n<p>The development, near Cawthra Road and Atwater Avenue, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insauga.com\/431-unit-rental-building-breaks-ground-in-mississauga\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">broke ground in October 2024<\/a>.\u00a0The 3.7-acre property, just south of the Mississauga Seniors Centre, has been vacant for many years.<\/p>\n<p>The project includes three mid-rise buildings \u2014 one nine-storey and two eight-storey residential buildings along with townhomes. It will bring 431 new purpose-built rental units to Mississauga.<\/p>\n<p>The property\u2019s zoning allowed for 12-storey buildings, but Athey said Morguard opted for a development that fit into the neighbourhood. The immediate area is mainly single-family homes and townhomes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re trying to be sensitive to the neighbourhood context by not doing towers,\u201d Athey said.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Athey said that Morguard has owned the property for around 20 years. He believes the property had previously been home to a post office facility, possibly for sorting mail.<\/p>\n<p>Morguard had been working on a few concepts for the property for many years, he said.<\/p>\n<p>The project was always going to be purpose-built rental buildings. Morguard doesn\u2019t build condominiums, Athey said.<\/p>\n<p>The development will offer a range of unit sizes, including:<\/p>\n<p>Five studio units<br \/>\n107 one-bedroom units<br \/>\n84 one-bedroom plus den units<br \/>\n109 two-bedroom units<br \/>\n51 two-bedroom plus den units<br \/>\n35 three-bedroom units<br \/>\n21 three-bedroom plus den units<br \/>\nOne penthouse unit<br \/>\n18 townhouses with two levels and three bedrooms<\/p>\n<p>Boulevard on the Green will also feature a range of indoor and outdoor amenities, including rooftop terraces, a greenhouse, a chef\u2019s kitchen, a lounge and screening room, co-working spaces, fitness and yoga facilities, pet spas, a dog run, a children\u2019s play area and outdoor cabanas.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is a wellness lifestyle theme to the design,\u201d Athey said.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-667168\" class=\"wp-image-667168 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/10\/725-village-green-boulevard-mississauga.jpg\" alt=\"725 village green boulevard mississauga\" width=\"1280\" height=\"716\"  \/><\/p>\n<p id=\"caption-attachment-667168\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A rendering shows the concept for 725 Village Green Blvd.<\/p>\n<p>The development is targeting LEED Gold certification and will incorporate sustainable and energy-efficient features throughout.

They plan to start welcoming tenants in the fall of 2027.<\/p>\n<p>This rental building isn\u2019t the only one coming to Mississauga soon.<\/p>\n<p>Another developer, Edenshaw, announced it was now building a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.insauga.com\/houses-demolished-as-work-starts-on-30-storey-rental-apartment-building-in-mississauga\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">30-storey purpose-built rental building<\/a> at Elizabeth and Park streets in Port Credit.
