Langford and zoning go together like peanut butter and sardines.

It's certainly a bit unusual to see the city's tallest building on the same block as bungalows. It's right next to the city core though so that's good. So many new buildings in and around Goldstream, and there are no signs of slowing down.

I would suspect that entire area will be eventually demoed and new buildings will rise.

I know from a development perspective Langford is open for business unlike any other municipality in the CRD

And that's a good thing. Evidently people want to live in the CRD and Langford is a great place to be. The one knock I have about all the West Shore growth is that the commute to the CoV will only get worse (which is already bad given the population count) and the lack of growth between Langford and the CoV hurts the case for things like bus lanes and LRT. But if Langford grows enough relative to the rest of the CRD, then jobs will follow suit and a larger share of the population won't need to leave the West Shore on a daily basis. That's Stew's ultimate goal I suppose; just shame that other CRD mayors and councilors don't take a hint.

The entire surrounding area, which is owned by the Catholic Church, is rezoned for mixed use - commercial/residential and is currently for sale http://www.collierscanada.com/25615#.W84ItXtKiUk
