“We’ve worked closely with neighbours, council and the business community to design a project that has the potential to make a significant positive impact in this community. Central Saanich council has shown leadership and vision in their approval of these much-needed rental and affordable rental homes.”

Connectivity with the Neighbourhood

Connectivity with the neighbourhood and alternative transportation are central to the design of this development. It is located on a major transit route that links to Sidney in 20 minutes and downtown Victoria in just over 30 minutes. It’s also within walking and cycling distance to the Saanichton village and minutes away from a variety of employers from high-tech to retail and manufacturing.
