Wikipedia fixes Mississauga's population density at 2,544 per square kilometre. I imagine that the area directly adjacent to Square One is even higher. Despite the sprawl that spun off of its wealth of high-volume roadways (on a per-acre basis, higher than even Hamilton, I would guess), it has embraced height and density with far greater enthusiasm than its western neighbours:

Oakville = 1,195/km2 (total)
Burlington = 885/km2 (total)
Hamilton = 1,500/km2 (lower urban only)

It'll be interesting to see if Mississauga will be able to reverse-engineer a downtown simulacra before we are able to rescue our own.
