There’s that, yes. There’s also the project along Craigflower on the Songhees reserve and various phases of residential east of the Pat Bay at Mt. Newton. I’m sure there are a few others.

Know it all.

Four apartment blocks is not small stuff. There are two additional buildings coming to Craigflower and there will be four along Stellys.

For commercial there’s Oyster Bay south of Nanaimo, the casino in Cowichan, etc. The first phase of commercial just completed on native land in Sooke. There’s all sorts of stuff.

A strip mall in Brentwood Bay long identified for redevelopment is being eyed as a potential location for an affordable-housing project by the Capital Regional District, which says its offer to purchase the property has been accepted.

 

Central Saanich Mayor Ryan Windsor said the location at 1183 Verdier Ave., which is close to transit and other services, had long been marked for densification in the municipality’s official community plan.

 

Developers had pitched various ideas for the site over the years but none had been realized — including a three-building development around 2008, he said. “That was right before the financial crisis hit.”

 

Windsor said the CRD purchase will help support Central Saanich’s goal of increasing its housing supply.
