More on the brewery lands - who, what, when, where how?
Some more interesting info regarding the brewery lands redevelopment. The developer appears to have hired some significant expertise to assist it in community engagement and design. They are leading off with the possibility of a linear park creation. Who could possibly oppose that? Good strategy here, get the masses intrigued with a little park creation promise, and then roll out the rest of the project in stages. I’d like to see this get started sooner than later with detailed presentations and a rezoning or land use change application, and a build out schedule. That is a lot to ask, surely this will be a multi year affair, and breaking ground can’t really begin for considerable time. Note the proximity of my upcoming build. When I purchased property nearby I had no idea plans for the brewery lands were moving forward this soon (after some false starts and media stories related to preservation rulings by the province). Securing a project this close to what could be something really unique and special is a major bonus, if it proceeds. Every builder likes to ride the coattails of a major developer, even better is taxpayer largesse on connectivity (high profile pedestrian bridges), parks and landscaping improvements. All of this could come to inglewood?
