Documents:Media: Northgate Shopping Centre housing development too big for area, neighbourhood opponents say-
Winnipeg Free Press
Description: A proposed residential development is set to transform a portion of the underutilized south parking lot in the southeast corner of Northgate Shopping Centre in northwest Winnipeg. The project envisions three distinct multi-storey apartment buildings on separate lots, delivering a combined total of 204 rental dwelling units to help address the city's growing housing needs. On Lot 1, plans call for a 6-storey building featuring 80 residential units along with a shared main-floor library space designed to serve both residents and the broader community. Lot 2 would host a 7-storey structure with 68 dwelling units, incorporating a versatile main-floor hall available for rentals and a dedicated daycare centre to support families. Completing the trio, Lot 3 proposes a 9-storey building containing 56 units, contributing to a varied height profile that steps up across the site. This mixed-use infill initiative aims to integrate housing directly adjacent to the mall's retail amenities, transit options, nearby schools, and existing infrastructure, promoting more walkable and sustainable living in an established commercial area. The development has drawn both support for its density and contributions to housing supply, as well as local concerns over traffic and neighbourhood fit, but received approvals following community hearings and appeals.

Description: A new residential project is advancing at 490 Shaftesbury Boulevard in Winnipeg's upscale Tuxedo neighbourhood, where developer Private Pension Partners (P3) is preparing to build a luxury, purpose-built rental apartment complex on a 1.4-acre infill site between Canadian Mennonite University and the Tuxedo Golf Course. The development will deliver a total of 58 dwelling units across three low- to mid-rise buildings: a central five-storey apartment structure containing 23 units, flanked by two four-storey buildings offering 17 and 18 units respectively. Positioned in one of the city's most affluent areas with excellent proximity to Assiniboine Park, extensive walking and biking trails, and active transportation paths along Shaftesbury Boulevard, the project emphasizes walkability and lifestyle amenities for residents seeking to age in place or enjoy lock-and-leave convenience. After facing community opposition over concerns about density, green space, and neighbourhood character—leading to rezoning debates, public hearings, and a Manitoba Municipal Board recommendation—the plans received approvals, with construction now underway the completed community, is expected to open around 2027. This modest-scale infill initiative aims to introduce diverse housing options while respecting the area's established character through stepped building heights and thoughtful site design.

Media: Back to the drawing board for McMillan Avenue project-Winnipeg Free Press
Description: A proposed mixed-use infill project is moving forward at 915 McMillan Avenue in Winnipeg's desirable River Heights neighbourhood, near the bustling Corydon Village area. The developer intends to erect a four-storey building that will house 30 residential dwelling units on the upper levels, complemented by two commercial spaces on the ground floor to activate the streetscape along this high-walkability corridor. Parking provisions include a modest 15 vehicle stalls—with 10 indoor and 5 accessed off the rear lane—alongside 10 secure indoor bicycle parking spots to encourage active transportation in this pedestrian-friendly location boasting a Walk Score of 90. The building's exterior will feature high-quality, durable materials such as brick and cement board siding, while incorporating balconies for resident amenity; those oriented to the east will include opaque or non-transparent privacy screens to maintain neighbourly consideration. Originally approved in concept around 2021 with fewer units and underground parking, the updated plans—reflecting increases to 30 units, surface-level parking adjustments, added bike facilities, and balcony modifications—faced scrutiny at a February 2025 public hearing, where the City Centre Community Committee rejected a related zoning amendment over concerns about neighbourhood impacts, traffic, and design changes. The project continues to navigate approvals as it aims to introduce much-needed rental housing and ground-floor vitality to one of Winnipeg's most vibrant inner-city pockets.

Media: Support, concern for clerkless hotel plan in West End-Winnipeg Free Press
Description: A proposed six-storey mixed-use development is advancing at 701 Ellice Avenue in Winnipeg's West End, on a long-vacant site that previously hosted the Discount Everything store (demolished in 2021 after decades as an auto-related business and video rental spot). The project envisions a ground-floor podium with two retail units to enliven the busy Ellice Avenue corridor, followed by 36 digitally managed hotel rooms across floors 2 through 4—operated with minimal on-site staff who attend only as needed for housekeeping, maintenance, and operations—and topped by 14 residential dwelling units on the fifth and sixth floors. This innovative "clerkless" or digital hotel concept, one of the first of its kind in the city, has sparked both enthusiasm for injecting new retail, short-term lodging, and housing into an area hungry for investment and revitalization, as well as some community concerns over potential impacts.

Description: A developer is proposing a four-storey mixed-use building at the corner of Corydon Avenue and Niagara Street, featuring ground-floor commercial space—most likely a bakery, though not yet confirmed—with residential apartments on the upper floors. The design includes separate entrances on the north side facing Corydon Avenue and the east side facing Niagara Street, both connecting directly to public sidewalks for easy pedestrian access. Setbacks are planned at 10 feet from the Niagara Street property line, 5 feet from Corydon Avenue, 25 feet from the neighboring single-family home to the south, and 5.8 feet from the rear lane. Parking will consist of 23 stalls in a mix of covered and underground spaces, including one accessible stall and one for car-sharing. The site will be landscaped with 45 shrubs but no trees.

Description: A local developer has submitted plans for a new mixed-use building on the site of an old rooming house, which will be torn down to make way for the project. The four-story building will combine homes and businesses in one place: the ground floor will have shops or offices along with parking, while the upper floors will contain nine apartmentsfour on the second floor and five spread across the third and fourth floors. The design keeps hallways on the north side only, so every apartment gets bright southern light. A pitched gable roof will keep the buildings height lower on the north side to be a better neighbor to nearby properties, and solar panels will cover the south-facing roof to help produce clean energy. Residents will also have convenient indoor and secure bike parking right inside the building.

Description: The developer is seeking to rezone and subdivide a property currently zoned for single-family homes into two lots for medium-density multi-family residential use, paving the way for two new apartment buildings totaling 190 units. The existing structure on the site will be demolished to make room for the project, which divides the land into a southern lot of about 83,000 square feet (99 units in Building #1) near McKay Avenue and a western lot of roughly 78,000 square feet (91 units in Building #2) near Arby Bay. Both four-storey buildings, reaching a maximum height of 45 feet, will step down to three storeys where they face neighbouring single-family homes to minimize impact. They will offer a mix of one-, two-, and three-bedroom units, with generous setbacks ranging from 15 to 131 feet to provide buffers from adjacent properties and streets. Site access will come from a new entrance on Arby Bay, supported by 234 vehicle parking spaces—including seven accessible and 20 guest spots—plus 20 bicycle parking spaces. The buildings will feature modern exteriors with stucco-like EIFS panels and durable Hardie cement lap siding. Extensive landscaping is planned, including dozens of new and preserved trees, hundreds of shrubs along street frontages and building foundations, and additional plantings within the parking areas. Resident amenities will include a dog run and raised garden beds, while garbage and recycling facilities will be conveniently placed on the eastern side of the second lot. This proposal aims to introduce higher-density housing while respecting the mature community character through thoughtful design, transitions in height, and enhanced greenery.

The proposed structure features a high-quality design with limestone and brick, a two-storey grand entrance, and 17 underground parking spaces.

The development also includes a private driveway to avoid using the existing back lane, 16 indoor bike parking stalls, and efforts to salvage materials from the original mansion for the new construction. The project aligns with Winnipeg's long-term plan to increase housing diversity and pedestrian-friendly development in mature neighborhoods like Crescentwood. Despite community opposition citing the building's size and impact on the neighborhood's character, the citys appeal committee approved the rezoning and variances in February 2023, allowing the project to proceed.

Crosstown Credit Union Building (also known historically as the Menno Building), is undergoing a significant adaptive reuse transformation into a 39-unit residential apartment building. Designed by local architect George A.

Key modifications include the addition of new window openings on the north side to improve natural light and livability for future residents. This conversion aligns with broader trends revitalizing underutilized downtown office stock amid shifting demands for urban living, breathing new life into a building that once symbolized the growth of a Mennonite-rooted credit union cooperative in the early 1960s.

So far, they have secured over $18 million toward the goal, including a lead gift of $5 million from The Winnipeg Foundation. They aim to reach the $40 million goal by the time construction begins in 2027. The new building and ceremonial grounds will be located on two acres on the banks of the historic Red River, on the Southwood lands of the Fort Garry campus where a ground-breaking ceremony was held in 2022. It will provide the NCTR with the space it needs to fulfil its mandate and act as an international learning centre for people across Canada and the world to learn the truth about residential schools, housing sacred items and records, thousands of oral histories and Survivor statements.
NCTR will launch a design competition in spring 2025 to select an Indigenous architect to lead the project. A carefully considered strategy will position the building project to advance economic reconciliation throughout the design and construction process. Set to open in 2029, the new home will stand as an international destination, celebrated for its groundbreaking work in bringing history and Indigenous cultures to life.
