Every growing community has its stories. Some are true. Some are rumours. And some become legends over time. Lakewood in Strathmore has heard them all. Instead of answering those questions ourselves, we asked the people who actually built it. Lakewood Mythbusters is a video series that explores the facts behind the land, the engineering, and the development of the community β through the voices of the experts behind it. Watch. Share. Decide for yourself.
In the first episode of Lakewood Mythbusters, *The Land, The Engineering, The Legend*, we explore one of the most common questions surrounding the community: what lies beneath the surface β and is it suitable for building? With growing interest in Lakewood, questions about the land, its history, and long-term stability are natural. This episode takes a closer look at how the site has been planned, prepared, and engineered to support residential development. From foundational infrastructure to thoughtful community design, we break down the facts behind the land and address the misconceptions that often come with new developments. Myth or fact? This is where the story begins.
In Episode 2 of Lakewood Mythbusters, we continue the conversation with Joel Rombough of Watt Consulting, taking a closer look at the engineering and infrastructure behind the Lakewood community. Through real project insight and technical expertise, this episode explores how planning, site servicing, and construction standards come together to support long-term development. Rather than relying on assumptions, we focus on the facts behind how Lakewood is designed and built from the ground up.
