Summerside is an example of residential intensification on an existing transit corridor that un- til now was not pedestrian friendly. A reclaimed Brownfield site, its location on Warden is im- mediately adjacent to the subway at St. Clair. A city planned park and community centre and a desire to accommodate more families within the city prompted grade access townhouse forms. To achieve densities appropriate to the city’s plans for intensification, only higher density multi-family units were used, with reduced setbacks and very innovative zoning, they set new standards for residential development. Three storey, very narrow or wider but very shallow townhouses and back-to-back townhouses were designed to suit the irregularities of the site. To achieve cohesion with such dense forms a decision was made to limit the brick, shingle and trim to single colours. Paint colours for doors and shutters are more varied and playful. Ample use of balconies and porches help create community.
