[Dartmouth] Ocean Breeze Village | Proposed

[Dmajackson]

The new owners of Ocean Breeze Village are planning to demolish the existing buildings over the next few years, subdivide the land, and sell the new lots to developers to build up to 3'400 units as-of-right. The first set of demolition permits were submitted this week. Buildings 11,12,14 on the parcel next to BIO and Hudson Way will be the first to be removed.

This is such a great location!

It's a fantastic location. With a ferry terminal at Shannon Park and a replacement bridge for the MacKay that has an active transportation option it'll be even better. It's nice to see Halifax interfacing better with its harbour from a public/average citizen perspective. When I first moved to Halifax in the late 90's I would ask folks why it was so difficult to access the harbour and often I'd get a response something like "it's a working harbour" which was somehow supposed to be an explanation.

When they first announced their development plans they promised they'd be doing it in a phased approach, and would move residents from the upcoming phase into completed phases. Doesn't sound like they're going to keep to that...
