Leighton Way (Grigg Heights)

Description

There is very little to say about this street, other than that it was named after Frederic Leighton, a 19th century English painter and sculptor. He never came to Malton, much less this block of it, but the chairperson on the committee to name this street had an unusually strong fascination 19th century artists and forced this name through. Another considered name of note was Parker Way, named for Charlie Parker the American jazz saxophonist and composer.

History

In early October, 2007, the Western Malton Coalition for a Grigg Heights Mall announced that the location selection committee had narrowed down to one the site for a new western Malton mall. Leighton Way is set to be excavated in spring 2009 as the start of construction on the southwest corner of the brand new yet-to-be-named Grigg Heights Mall. This location was selected very carefully after months of economic studies, urban planning, and civil engineering surveys. The new mall will be a great boon to this part of Malton, which has fallen on economic hard times of late.
