Stratford councillor setting goals to get an ice rink built in town

The Guardian

It's about time! The feds gave $10 million to North Rustico to build a new rink, and Stratford which is closing in on 12,000 people, doesn't even have one. Their application was rejected! Time to change that!

Water St West Apartments - Summerside

After driving my daughter-in-law back to Summerside this afternoon, I decided to tour around the downtown and over to the Water St west. I noticed this building before but never had the chance to get up close. I was going to take a picture but I had to head back to Charlottetown. This image is off GE.
What I noticed about this apartment, and I had to take a second look, several looks in fact, that quite a lot of the roadside apartments were empty (not sure what the waterview side is like).

If Summerside is having a housing problem, then why are these empty? Wasn't this building completed over a year ago!

I'm pretty sure that building is a reactive health.
Not to many places have elevators for only 2 stories. That Blaze pizza in the former subway on the avenue is a big building for just pizza

Most new multilevel commercial buildings have elevators, they’re pretty common. But I agree that it’s likely a medical clinic upstairs, which commercial spaces downstairs.

Charlottetown is addressing housing crisis, mayor says in year-end interview...

The Guardian

...The vacancy rate in the capital jumped from a woeful 0.3 per cent in 2018 to 1.2 per cent in 2019, based on numbers from the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation.
Brown said keeping up with demand is difficult considering the city’s population increased 19 per cent between 2005 and 2019 and has jumped eight per cent in the last three years alone...

Other items mentioned,

- The city is moving toward the design phase for a third fire station that will be located on Malpeque Road.
- The long-awaited roundabout connecting Belvedere Avenue, St. Peters Road and Brackley Point Road, at what is known as the Vogue Optical corner, is being looked at again by the public works committee.
- The city is also looking at adding a third ice pad at the Bell Aliant Centre to eventually replace the aging Simmons Sport Centre. No decision has been made on the future of Cody Banks Arena in Sherwood.

Richmond St Affordable Apartments

Lots of progress going on here.

24 Water St

The older apartments are well underway with lots of work taking place on the
outside and inside. The newer section is coming along. Should be 6 stories or more to add more apartments
to allow more people living in the downtown core.

A&W is now listing Stratford as ‘Available Now’ on their Franchise page. They make the distinction between available now and coming soon on the site so that is why I bring it up. Perhaps where KFC used to be located would be a good location for that, although it’s not really shaped the way they like to build their restaurants, but they could always tare the building now and rebuild on the same lot.
