The proposed 4-storey building at 2663 Innes Road will accommodate 18 residential units and 3 commercial office spaces that are nestled beside an existing retirement residence to the west and a walking path and tennis club to the east. The property is accessed immediately off Innes Road.
The residential portion of the building will provide a mix of 1-bedroom, 1-bedroom + den and 2-bedroom rental units. The office spaces at the ground floor will provide a total of 153m2 of rentable office space for the building.
The site provides a total of 28 parking spaces including 11 compact parking spaces and 2 accessible parking spaces. Parking is located along the west and north areas of the site with 5 covered parking spaces located on the northern edge of the building. Bike parking is provided at two locations: 5 vertical bike parking spaces are provided at the back of the building adjacent to the covered parking spaces, and the remaining 5 bike parking spaces are provided within the landscaped area to the north of the site.
The existing 1-1/2 storey building is currently in poor condition and will be demolished to allow the proposed development.
Missing middle housing and commercial use as well. Good fit for next to a retirement home and across from a Tim Hortons. It is on the 'transitway' with one frequent (but often bunched together) bus route to the LRT and a second bus will serve Phase 2. With grocery, pharmacy, medical, banks, library and some recreation this is an excellent part of the city in which to live car-free.
There's another small building development that will happen on Bearbrook just around the corner so it took me a moment to realize this isn't that.
