[Sackville] 249 Sackville Drive & The Donovan | 18-15 m | 2X4 fl | Completed
Not exactly what I was hoping for when I first heard of this proposal however for Sackville it's not bad.
Basically the proposal is for two 4/5 storey buildings on a common podium on lands across from Payzant's Home Hardware in Lower Sackville. The good news is the architect for the project is Kassner/Goodspeed so there is a decent chance this will turn out somewhat attractive. All of the information available is here; Case 16416 P.S. I'll add in the renderings once I get on my personal computer this evening or tomorrow. |

That article is pretty good. At least there are a couple of pro-development polticial folks around.

This project has changed dramatically;
The proposal is now for ONE four storey apartment building on the site. Other than the extra height this will be a 'Sackville Special' project consisting of wood construction, exterior parking, little to no street appeal, and four stories in height which with the exception of this site is the maximum for as-of-right buildings. Here is the report going to Northwest Community Council next week for first reading. BTW moderators the thread title should now be; [Sackville] 249 Sackville Drive | 18 m | 4 fl | Proposed |
This project was approved last night. :tup:

If this actually pulls off being upscale in Sackville, it will be a first.

Those upscale apartments have a breathtaking view of the lumberyard and the used car lots. ;)
