Groupe Lépine is proposing a development at 910 March Road that will include 390 rental housing units as well as three commercial spaces totaling 521m2 which will add diversity to the uses along March Road. The apartment complex will have two direct pedestrian entrances; a primary entrance from the south on March Road and a secondary entrance from the landscaped courtyard. Commercial spaces, common areas and the entrance of the main lobby are oriented towards the Mainstreet. Vehicular access to the underground parking will be through a ground level driveway integrated into the building facade, all of which will be setback from March Road.
487 parking spaces will be provided underground and 27 above ground, for a total of 568 spaces on the site. While the municipal law for the building requiring 390 spaces for residents, 79 spaces for visitors and 18 spaces for commercial tenants.
"Curry said his understanding is the home is owned by the descendants of the original owner and they are in the process of selling it to a housing developer."
i bet great grandpa scissons would've been happier to hear that his descendants got a pay day rather than a heritage designation
Brockington mentioned how developers on Carling and Baseline justify adding very little parking on long planned BRTs (/LRT) that never seem to come to fruition, but this developer is using the current lack of BRT to justify a ridiculous number of parking spots. He's wondering why this is the case when the Mayor and Doug have decided the March Road BRT will leap frog up the priority list.
Also interesting, while the GTHA gets a couple dozen Billion or so fully funded subway, LRT and commuter rail lines, the chump change $50 million for March Road BRT is once again just s third of the funding, of part of the project.

It's because the conservative PCP has an aversion to wanting to fund anything in Ottawa because it'll go to *shutters* Federal Employees **. Honestly, I do not get it because they are so happy to put money in South-West Ontario and all the way up to Sudbury. I don't get the anti-Ottawa beef
