Phase 2 is well above grade now

 

[Mr. Snrub]

The shorter 6-storey building on the south side of Phase 2 is now fully topped out, while the taller 9-storey tower facing Brookfield is about 4 or 5 stories above grade. Will try to snap some pictures soon.

The second phase is coming along nicely. I love the bridge connecting the two phases. This is one of the most unique midrise developments in the region, somewhere between the average and Agora. It's great to see the commerical component in an area that had none.

 

[Dzingle Bells]

This is great. Literally a 15-minute neighbourhood being created before our eyes where there was not one previously. All the residential behind Brookfield now has somewhere they can walk or bike to for a bite to eat. Is there any sort of grocery/corner store here?

Will be even better once Confederation Heights eventually starts to get developed.

 

[J.OT13]

Agreed, this is a great project in terms of design and amenities for the community. I can barely tell the difference between the renderings and pictures.

As for the specifics on the retail component, this as posted in March on SSP by TransitZilla:

Retail tenants are listed on their website: https://revalieottawa.ca/on-site-retail/

• Aisle 24
• Meltwich
• Feras Barber Shop
• A2 Dental
• Subway
• Mezbaan
• Popeyes

Aisle 24 is a small cashless grocery store. Never been to one myself.

I'm impressed that there's a long list of retail tenants, in a desert location such as this. Why can't downtown condos develop tenants, but a student housing block on a parking lot can?

Beacuse teens/young adults dont think as much when they spend money.

Speak about yourself there. Let me tell you I did not have enough to spend on almost anything in school.

 

[Har13]

fair enough. Everyone is different.

I’m 21 and from what I see from my entourage is people always complaining that they’re broke but also spending 300 dollars a weekend on going out.

We remember those that spend, not those that don't
