I was just browsing Councillor Greg Turner's FB page, and he states that the new Day & Ross property is 27 acres. This seems about right. The site seems huge when you drive by on Frenette.
Councillor Turner also replied to a subsequent query from someone about "what would happen to the old Day & Ross building?" by stating
"We are hearing there will be a new development on that property , once they move to their new location next year ." I wonder what this means? The old Day & Ross site was one of the finalists for the new Costco location before they ultimately chose to relocate to the Granite Centre. Since then, there have been unsubstantiated rumours that Kent Building Supplies might relocate there from Wheeler Park. I'm still unclear why Kent would want to do this, but we will have to keep an eye on this rumour for down the road............
