Three residential towers of 21 to 24 storeys — containing 555 rental units — are proposed for the former Mayfair Lanes site adjacent to Mayfair shopping centre, along with a Great Canadian Superstore and other commercial outlets.
Loblaw had the building torn down and there were subsequent plans to build a Real Canadian Superstore there, but the project did not go ahead.Stefan Slot, vice-president of development for Vancouver developer Townline, which is working on the project with Loblaw, said an application for a development permit and rezoning from commercial to mixed use was filed in December.
“I’m hoping for an expedited process all along the way, because the sooner we as the developer can bring these rental homes to market, the better it is for everyone,” Slot said. “In a situation like this where it is in the Saanich core, it is important to get a broader group of people together,” Hamill said. “The project is within our area, however we are a very small community association and we don’t have the resources that [others] have.
I’d love to live between the two busiest and noisiest streets in Victoria. Totally worth the rental prices.

Calgarians struggle to find affordable housing as number of low-cost rental units decreasesFinding an affordable place to rent in Calgary hasn’t been easy for Gregory Fraser. it both baffles and amazes me to watch people now complain about issues they chose to be ignorant about before: 1) Why do College & University students get first pick, even during the summer months when they are not here? 2) Prices go up right before stampede and do not come down With Trudeau’s immigration plans there should be another 50 to 100 thousand more people looking for somewhere to live in Calgary this year. You ain’t seen nothing yet FYI.. Low cost housing should be ONLY for veterans, and people with dissabilities, including mental and physical, NOT for the woke, who dont believe in working for a living.
