A rendering of the proposed 8-storey mixed-use development at 1866 Rymal Rd. E. in Stoney Creek. The Hamilton Design Review Panel will assess the proposal at their meeting on Thursday, February 9.

This week witnessed good transaction levels in all subject markets.

The largest transaction occurred in Kitchener as ONE Properties sold a relatively new retail plaza for $18.75 million ($240/sq. ft). It’s great to see the retail asset class rebounding from its pandemic lull.

The largest Hamilton transaction occurred on the Mountain, where Winzen Group purchased 8.44 acres of land for $11.2 million ($1.3 million/acre). Although it’s currently zoned agricultural, the property looks primed for a residential infill project.

Lots of news: The DRP will discuss an 8-storey proposal, the proposed towers project by Stoney Creek Battlefield House Museum and Park is headed to the OLT, and CBRE released their Q4 2022 cap rate report.
