👏 This is the kind of investment we love to see in Centre Wellington.
The Township of Centre Wellington has purchased 350 St. Andrew Street West in downtown Fergus for approximately $1.13 million, with the goal of helping bring more affordable rental housing to our community.
The site already has approvals in place for a four-storey mixed-use development featuring 36 residential units and ground-floor commercial space. The Township’s next step is expected to be finding an experienced partner to help bring the project to life.
This deserves some applause. 👏
Housing affordability isn't solved with one project or one idea. It takes municipalities, builders, developers, businesses and residents being willing to look at different types of housing in the right locations.
Adding rental housing right in the heart of Fergus, within walking distance of shops, services, employment and community amenities, makes a ton of sense.
We talk a lot about the growth coming to Centre Wellington. Thoughtful intensification and a greater variety of housing options need to be part of that conversation.
Well done, Centre Wellington. We're excited to see where this one goes. 👏🏡
