Which project on Kenmount rd is being referred to?
|
I assume the development of the hill as a result of TGH?
|
My guess is Kenmount Hill. I think there is a development plan coming from the area above the 190 m contour which was previously excluded from development. It's the area in between Kenmount Road and Blackmarsh where the new highway is going.
|
They are referring to the above the 190 meters .. there is going to be a massive development of that area and it's going to be a planned development such as the Glencrest one ;)
|
I think part of the Kenmount Terrace area which is currently undeveloped is above the 190 so that may possibly open up more suburban sprawl in that area.

Awesome news (RE: Statoil). :)
This is the type of economic development that takes work. A city can't just rely on government hand-out industries (like defense, ship-building, etc.) or even resources (like fishery, forestry, oil and gas, mining, etc.) and end up with these sorts of investments. Getting development like this is basically the oil and gas equivalent of processing our fish in-province. Cities have to go out and work hard to get this type of smart economic development. Luckily, Scandinavia seems to be the only real competition. But we have the Marine Institute - which is more famous and respected in its various fields that I think most Newfoundlanders realize. So we have a leg up. Bring it on! :D |
Speaking of the Marine Institute I have a friend in Venezuela who did an exchange year here and he did a degree in Naval Engineering in Caracas Venezuela.
One day he skype called me to tell about how he had a full class in Venezuela talking about the technology being used at the Marine Institute here in St. John's and it's world class simulator. :) Here's a pic of the simulator http://www.cbc.ca/nl/features/titani...-simulator.jpg http://www.google.ca/search?q=marine...2F%3B380%3B180 here's the inside from the Department of Innovation, Trade and Rural Development, Government of Newfoundland and Labrador http://www.atlanticgateway.gc.ca/med...ion-Centre.jpg http://www.atlanticgateway.gc.ca/str...chapter11.html |
Here's something interesting about the simulation from the MI from a few years ago that's right up our alley:
