R:ED Meeting: New Qualico Development

N e w   Q u a l i c o   D e v e l o p m e n t

New Date: Wed June 9

Mr Martin Maykut, Manager with StreetSide Development Corp (a Qualico company) will discuss the development of the former Nygard properties. 

StreetSide plans to develop up to 150 units in seven retrofitted heritage buildings.  The buildings are along Market Street east of Rorie and in the block immediately north, along James Street.

The focus will be on developing affordable units.  Most units will be in the 500 - 600 sq ft range, selling for under $200,000.  There may be a few larger penthouse units that will sell for more.  This is StreetSide's second Exchange development - they also did Ship Street Village on Waterfront Drive.

Martin will discuss the new development plans, give us his views on the area and talk about the importance of the recent TIF grants.  Conditions permitting, we may also have a tour of some of the buildings.

A special thanks to R:ED member Cynthia Brick for offering to host this meeting at her new store Brick's Fine Furniture (145 Market Avenue) -- in one of the buildings StreetSide is developing.
