The project is part of a redevelopment of the Oxford (59 rental units) and Gordreau (141 rental units) apartments, and will include a public dock and waterfront walkway along the Gorge Waterway.

I wish council had the time to sit down and hear from all current tenants. They’d find out that the suites are all rented as “furnished”, many of the tenants have a tough time to make ends meet, and many have lived in their homes for decades.
Tenants who think they should pay $600 a month forever? I therefore demand my mortgage payment, heating, maintenance costs, property taxes, etc can't go up more than 2%/year. Why not limits on food increases too. Gasoline? Tires? Electronics? Fair is fair
...and you wonder why these buildings have reached the end of their lives? News flash with rents at $600 a month there is no money for maintenance let alone upgrades
We need to do away with limiting rent increases, we live in a capitalist country. Maybe these people can't afford to live in Victoria?

The five-building proposal could replace four ageing apartments and add commercial units to Gorge Road E.

Expansive parcel along the Gorge Waterway could see its existing density more than double over the next several years.
