Description: A local developer Asclepius Investments Inc., in collaboration with Unit 7 Architecture and Landmark Planning & Design Inc., presented preliminary plans for redeveloping the roughly 10,662 sq. ft. site on the west side of Rue Des Meurons, just north of Hamel Avenue. Currently zoned R2 for two-family residential use, the property—bounded by single-family homes to the north, a rear lane and additional residences to the west, and a duplex to the south—would require rezoning to RMF-L (Residential Multi-Family Large) to accommodate a three-storey, 16-unit building featuring a mix of studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom units. Two design concepts were showcased, both with main entrances facing Rue Des Meurons, nine rear-lane parking stalls (including accessible and Peg City Car Co-op spaces), secure bike storage, enhanced landscaping, and new pedestrian connections; one features a saltbox roof and the other a gable roof. Stakeholder input gathered at the June meetings will inform refinements, with a project update anticipated for July/August 2026 and a formal development application targeted for autumn 2026.
