The final roadblock to this new apartment project on Pleasant Street has been cleared:

Brutalist-style Moncton church rezoned to make way for new apartment building
Archbishop Valéry Vienneau said diocese needs money and would demolish the building regardless

Some notes:

Quote:
Albert Boudreau of Moncton-based ATMJ Properties Inc., said he made changes to the design of the apartment building to change the roof. He also said he decided to incorporate the bell tower into his development, "in honour of the architects involved in the original design both the bell tower and the church."
Quote:
The developer now plans to start construction by mid-summer and have the project done within a year.

The bell tower will be saved.
