The Town of East Gwillimbury is evolving from what was mainly a rural and suburban character to a thriving urban community surrounded by picturesque countryside and active agricultural areas. Hamlets and villages continue to play an important role in the Town through accommodating a mix of land uses. The communities of Holland Landing – River Drive Park, Sharon, Queensville, and Mount Albert, as well as the community currently being planned for the Green Lane Corridor area, will continue to develop based on its own rich history, unique charms and character.
