[St. John's] The Official Project Thread

[Marty_Mcfly]

The way I feel about Tiffany Towers at this point is that I'll believe it when they're digging the holes in the ground.

[goodgrowth]

There is also project on there for apartment buildings just off Stavanger Dr that is supposed to commence in 2023:

Though the image says 6 buildings at 10 storeys and the description says 10 buildings at 5 storeys....so who knows.

Man, this project has been on the plate for almost a decade now I figure. Same as you... believe it when I see it!

Proposal to turn old west end fire station into condos.

I think that proposal looks pretty cool.

[goodgrowth]

Looks like there is a proposal for 34 townhouses in Pleasantville:

Noticed that they have renderings up for these now:

That yellow is a bit intense but those buildings are very cool.

JAG Hotel's performing arts venue is coming along. I think it's going to be visible in the skyline from my house.

[goodgrowth]

Looks like there is a residential development proposed adjacent to the Walmart on Aberdeen Ave:

[SignalHillHiker]

I do indeed have a good view of the JAG performing arts whatever from my house.

[Architype]

^ It's an interesting project to watch, and it will only block your view of a small bit of the drydock.
I hope you get some more pics.

[SignalHillHiker]

Oh I’m all for blocking that view. I’d love for one tall building closer, say where Mary Browns Centre is. The rest can fill in - those three midrises behind the Hilton should be at least partially in my view as well. Exciting times!

"Province Issues Tender for Construction of New Emergency Department at Health Sciences"

Anything out there on plans for the Waterford hospital after the new MH&A facility opens? I imagine there'll be lots of people trying to get in there once it's boarded up, but I hope this is not something that will be left to crumble like some other government owned eyesores over the years.

be surprised if people are lined up for buy the land and build condos

[Marty_Mcfly]

Yeah, I would think that the land is more valuable than the buildings. That entire site is beyond repair and needs to be completely demo'd.

Nimbys out in full force again on this one.
If built as in the renderings, I think it adds to the area
