History

Square One Shopping Centre’s inauguration in 1973 marked a transformational moment amidst surrounding farmlands and sporadic housing pockets. The establishment of the Mississauga Civic Centre in 1987, graced by the Duke and Duchess of York, solidified the city’s governance hub, commemorated by Duke of York Blvd. Recent residential development, notably the Mississauga City Centre by Daniels, has reshaped the area into a vibrant, multi-functional neighborhood.
