And yet some people want to claim the development process is broken. Encouraging property flips should be the ultimate goal, right?
Anyway, I hope somebody remembers the concept for this one and tries to do something similar wherever there's a narrow lot waiting to be repurposed.
A banal, 4-storey shoebox with some faux Tudor accents on the Fort Street side aught to suffice. Call it the Essex, or Suffolk or such and it'll be good to go.
Sounds about right, except it'll probably be named after Queen Elizabeth as remembrance of her passing.
Refinements to Fort Street rental proposal yield improved design, on-site parking and more units
55-unit rental complex drops modular design in favour of concrete, allowing for greater floorplan flexibility and a refined architectural presence.
