Ross Terrace is a five-storey rental complex with a ground floor commercial space situated along the 2500-block of Fifth Street in Victoria's urban core. In addition to apartment suites, several townhomes will front onto Fifth Street, and the Vancouver Island School of Art will occupy the project's commercial component.
The project is themed on the American sitcom Friends, which will include show-inspired interior design elements in the building's common areas and offer below-market rents for several suites, in-keeping with reduced rents available to two characters of the television show. The project's name, Ross Terrace, is also an homage to a key Friends character.

...They’re turning 15 aged units into 60-units. Your provincial government wants to stop this from happening.
That was the point I was trying to make. Eby's fund will prevent new rental housing from being built, which hurts everyone in the long run.
A mobile crane is on site that wasn't there this morning (photo is from about 1:25pm). Safe bet that the site crane will be going up soon.
Sure enough, the crane went up today. Photo is from Wark St Park at 2:40 PM.
