What’s Coming to Forest Edge Commons The months of roadwork at Colonel Talbot and Southdale Roads has quietly been setting the stage for new growth in southwest London. One of the most anticipated additions nearby is Forest Edge Commons, a mixed-use development from Westdell Development Corp. The project is designed to bring a wide range of shopping and services to this end of the city — something many Byron residents will appreciate having just a short drive away. Forest Edge Commons will include more than 130,000 square feet of retail and residential space. With convenient access to Highways 401 and 402, it is positioned to serve the growing southwest corridor and surrounding communities. As new neighbourhoods continue to expand, having essential services close to home becomes even more important. Here’s what we know so far about the businesses coming to the plaza. Building 1 will be the first to see activity. Tenants include BMO, a dental office, a cookie shop, a pharmacy, and Stacked Pancake & Breakfast House. Openings are expected to begin this spring, which means residents may soon have access to everyday banking, health services, and a few treats without heading across the city. Velofix mobile bike repair is now servicing London & surrounding areas. Building 2 will follow, with businesses such as a nail salon, animal hospital, hair salon, optometrist, and Jabal Café. These openings are anticipated to begin in the spring or summer and could extend into the fall. Together, these additions will round out the plaza with personal care, medical services and a local gathering spot.

Building 3, the north building, will include Dollar Tree and Pak Foods. Those businesses are not expected to open until 2027, giving the development a longer rollout timeline as construction continues. Large projects like this don’t come together overnight. The roadwork, servicing, and preparation happening now are part of a broader plan to support steady growth. For longtime residents, it may feel like change is happening quickly. For newer families moving into the area, developments like Forest Edge Commons signal that services are catching up with demand. As openings begin over the coming months, many will be watching with interest. New businesses often bring convenience, employment opportunities, and fresh energy to a neighbourhood. For Byron and the surrounding southwest communities, Forest Edge Commons represents another step forward and one that will make daily errands and small outings just a little easier close to home.
