Looks like the development across from the Biltmore(Howard Johnsoon) is going ahead as they are prepping the site. All trees on the property have been chopped and a portable office was set up on the south side of the site. Im guessing they will start digging any day now.
Good development except for one massive problem. They got frigin townhouse units fronting Prince Edward street with the club/bar/lounge and liquor store across the tiny street. Its going to cause tons of problems for the new residents. It would of been nice if they could of built in some other use for at least the ground floor on Prince Edward street, some sort of community space, or a kindergarten, studio would of been probably good, anything but townhouses.
