The textured look in the brick looks really good.

neutroniks · #**6469** Posted **Oct 1, 2024, 8:01 PM**

Walked by that one during Nuit Blanche and love how they set up the bricks. It really stand out. A lot of people during Nuit Blanche also commented on the building as an installation was right behind it.

CentreVenture Development Corporation Is proposing to close a portion of Waterfront Drive at Heaton Avenue to facilitate the sale of the land for a three story development, 24-unit townhouse style residential property.

Any renders? Link isn't working for me

Okay, thanks.
I speak "English" so that would be why, & a few other languages.

While always hopeful of development on Waterfront Drive, I am cautiously concerned a project on such a small site compromises the larger parcel behind it..

I’m certain some discussion have taken place with that business / property owner to date and in the past, but impact on their property and future development is huge. Is 24 units on that parcel really the best way forward? Will it be ANOTHER black building?

Is a development on that parcel beneficial to the area? Yes... Has CV done all they can and exhausted all opportunity of a larger contiguous development? I don’t know.

We are still waiting 5 years latter for the Waterfront / Duncan site to move forward. Are there any teeth in that sale / development agreement?

There is still the Alexander Docks which really needs to come together again five years latter.

Much wants to happen on Waterfront North but there are a few governmental log jams which need to be cleared quickly.

Finally, as mentioned many times previously, the encampments on Waterfront Drive and the challenges which go with it really are holding up hundreds of millions of development. That capital will be allocated elsewhere unfortunately…

While I’m not proposing specific solutions, robust ongoing discussions and decisions leading to resolutions are required.

Glad to see something going there but its mid....

That ground floor design is so sad...

Unbending · #**6478** Posted **Oct 16, 2024, 6:33 PM**

Is this one of the eleven HAF projects that was recently announced? 228 King St. & 261 Princess St.? Or is this a different project?

Biff · #**6479** Posted **Oct 16, 2024, 6:35 PM**

Yes

Agreed, but I would gladly take six of those buildings in the surrounding blocks in that over head view picture.

It reminds me of the newish building on the corner of Princess and Logan.

that aerial view is so out of date...
