costco site
The City has scheduled a public consultation meeting for 7 p.m. on Monday, March 30, 2015 in the William Lea Room at Leaside arena to air information about a proposal by Costco to permit parking for 124 vehicles on the west side of Thorncliffe Park Drive. This is on the length of Thorncliffe which runs from the beginning of Beth Nealson Drive and the cul de sac at the south end behind properties facing Overlea Blvd. The space in question is shown on the above map in light green. This part of Thorncliffe Park is less known and was used by Coca Cola to access parking for its trucks. The proposed parking is described as ancillary and would be in addition to the parking which is already built into the plan for the Overlea location (42-46 Overlea) and which includes green space. 100,000 sq. ft. of green space at Overlea Costco
