8-Storey Mountain Development Will Go to Design Review Panel

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.

Alex Manojlovich’s Weekly Market Report: Condo Towers coming to Hamilton with new Slate development

This week witnessed excellent transaction levels.

The area’s largest transaction was in Hamilton at 970 Upper Wentworth St. Everest purchased the 79,000 sq. ft retail plaza for $26 million ($329/sq. ft). It illustrates a high price-per-square-foot for retail that was more commonplace pre-pandemic.

970 Upper Wentworth St. is across from the Lime Ridge Mall, which made the news recently thanks to Cadillac Fairview‘s proposal to demolish the former Sears building and replace it with two 12-storey residential towers.

It’s great to see retail continuing its comeback in 2022.

The region’s second-largest purchase was in Waterloo, where Lexington Park Real Estate Capital purchased a 31,800 sq. ft industrial building at 80 Lodge St. for $12.5 million ($393/sq. ft). That’s an absolutely massive valuation for industrial.

In the news, Slate plans to break ground on Corktown condo highrises in 2023; the OLT approved 25 storeys for Vrancor‘s residential project at 354 King St. W.; and DeSantis is planning luxury condos in rural Winona.
