Original Post:
The small Newfoundland town of Meadows, just across the Humber Arm from Corner Brook will be the site of a new condominium development. This is the latest in a series of resort type developments for Western Newfoundland. The project will comprise of 60 condominiums in six buildings on 8.6 acres of waterfront property.
Quote:
After discovering greener pastures on the north shore of the Bay of Islands, a German family is bringing 60 condominiums to the town of Meadows.
"The site was the last piece of land on the north shore with the beach and ocean access required, and is the ideal location for their clientele."
“The other reason people come to Newfoundland is the low rate of crime, it is very important,” he said. “You go to the United States and you can’t leave your kids to run around freely. That unfortunately is something a lot of people in Europe and the United States don’t experience anymore.”
Phase 1 is expected to begin in May with the first 12 apartments and the recreation centre — consisting of a recreation area, administrative offices, restaurant, pool, sauna, spa, gym, and a small convenience store — completed and ready for accommodating in January of 2008.
