It consists largely of high rise apartments and condominiums, built in the 1970s, but has some businesses on Richmond Road. There is a small park on Richmond Road and McEwen Avenue along with the Kichi Zibi Mikan parkland which forms its northern and western edges. There are no churches or schools in its area.
It is served by the #11 bus on the south and the #153 bus on all its streets. A station, for the western extension to the new Light Rail Transportation system being built, is planned for New Orchard Avenue.
