Except for the porta-potty, it’s a cute little development! What is the address for this one?

Beautiful and simple. If we can scale this and get a few hundred of these infills everywhere - along with a mix of all the rest of typologies we are seeing more of (e.g. apartments) - we have a chance at materially adding housing supply and diversity in these areas.A neat project in Ramsay, incroporating the Black & White corner store.

It's not legally protected but I guess the developer has agree to keep it regardlessCan't believe that little store is protected, of all the buildings in the area to keep forever. This proposal looks good though!
It might be similar to the Nimmons house where designation is the plan but there's no point designating and then needing to de-designate to modify the building for the project. With Nimmons they instead had a protective bylaw that covered the protection but allowed the project work, with designation to happen after the project is completed.It's supposed to be protected, I work with someone who did the heritage protection at their previous job.
Cool. This is the old barn redev correct?View attachment 481944
So it starts. It appears the shed roof portion attached to the gambrel roof structure of the is coming down. I'll try to track progress as best as I can, (just living down near the other end of the block.)
A bit of a photo update from the Monday. The power went out. I was working on a proposal deadline for Tuesday when the fire department knocked on our door to stay out of the backyard and lane. Anyway, word on the street was that "some form of equipment" took out one of the powerlines behind the barn. Anyway took a few shots of the Barn for you all while I was there. There is interesting old graffiti partially on the T+G wood siding that was covered up by the shed addition.Sorry SP, It is that site. It appears the design team has changed a bit since the developer brought the project forward. A little surprised that there was no heritage/conservation architect listed.
