Markham: from Milliken to Cornell

Markham stretches from the Scarborough boundary at Milliken up to Cornell and beyond.

Neighbourhoods

  • Milliken and Agincourt border: townhouses, plazas and mixed housing.
  • Unionville and Markham Village: older streets, heritage doors and larger newer homes.
  • Cornell, Cathedraltown and Angus Glen: newer construction with builder hardware.

Corridors

  • Highway 7 and Woodbine: offices, showrooms and tech buildings.
  • Steeles and Kennedy: dense retail plazas.
  • Denison and Warden industrial areas: personnel doors and warehouse units.

What helps a dispatch

  • A clear cross street and the type of property.
  • For condos, the building and whether parking is available.
  • For offices, who authorizes the work.

About 10 km north-west of our office

Markham is roughly ten kilometres from Finch Avenue East, and most calls reach Unionville, Milliken and Markham Centre along Kennedy Road, Warden Avenue and Highway 7. Northern neighbourhoods such as Cornell take a little more time. Tell the dispatcher the nearest cross streets and whether the building has visitor parking.

What the work looks like

Unionville has heritage homes and shopfronts with original doors, Markham Centre and the Highway 7 corridor have condo towers and office units, and newer subdivisions have builder-grade deadbolts that often benefit from a rekey and a stronger strike. Businesses along Steeles Avenue and Woodbine Avenue tend to need closers, exit devices and access control.
