Obviously we've read about this hideous thing coming to St. Catharines:

But SOMETHING is better than nothing I guess.
It's interesting that it is a 3 building development, it seems most multi-phase developments in St. Catharines almost always fail after building the first structure. For example:
1) Grenadier Place along Martindale Road was suppose to be 6 Buildings (only 1 built)
2) Meadowvale Green was suppose to be 3 buildings (one built, one partially built, never finished and then demolished)
And the tallest,
3) Towering Heights Blvd., 4 phases, 3 built ending with the city's tallest at 17 storeys, the 4th phase was suppose to be 27 storeys, never built.
Perhaps times have changed and with the aging population and the shrinking desire to maintain a single-detached home with lawn and all when you're getting up there in age, as well as Provincial legislation, things are literally looking "up". I guess we'll find out based upon how quickly this and Port Place sell out.
