The houses close to Métis weren't part of the urban blvd because when those houses were built, Métis/ Country Hills Blvd was to one day become an interchange.
Now that Métis was downgraded from an expressway, it's no longer in the plans.
Either way, it becomes an urban Blvd just east of what it built now. The area around CHB/60th St is zoned to have up to 20+ story buildings and the future LRT station might be underground below the intersection.
