"Count the cranes" One of the simplest ways of determining how 'hot' a real estate market is, though there is some wisdom to it. While Burlington will never have the dazzling skyscrapers of a large market, there are a historical amount of cranes dotting the greater area's skyline, with more in the pipeline. Unsurprisingly, most of these projects focus on the area's housing shortage - but all are great indicators of the positive momentum of our market. We have something that will never go out of style - people want to live here. A few examples? -Cambrian Rise: multi-phased residential downtown-adjacent urban infill with on-site amenities never seen before in BTV -Burlington High School: Brand new $165M high school for the Queen City -CityPlace: multi-phased mixed-use prime BTV downtown urban infill with live/work/play -City Center: Creating a South Burlington 'downtown' from scratch with dense housing and ample transportation options -Over 1,100 units in the pipeline near Hula -200,000 SF manufacturing facility for Beta ...Just to name a few. Unlock your housing, unlock your economy, unlock your prosperity!

Design Codes: love or hate them, are useful tools in creating local-specific developments. With my educational background in urban design, I love being involved in creating design codes. They help developers understand and respect local nuances, ensuring that new developments are not just functional but also deeply rooted in the unique character of each area. However, with the current heavy emphasis on housing delivery, can design codes effectively combat the 'cookie-cutter' effect in many modern housing estates? What are your thoughts? 🤔 #DesignCodes #HousingCrisis #PlaceMaking #CommunityEngagement

🏡 Building Beautiful: Finding the Balance Between Housing Growth and Design 🏡 As the housing crisis intensifies, many new developments are becoming ‘cookie-cutter’ estates, losing the unique character of local communities. With 1.5 million homes promised by the Labour Party, it's crucial to balance housing delivery with thoughtful design that respects local identity. In our latest blog by Charlotte Cox- MRTPI, we explore how design codes can guide development while preserving the distinctiveness of each area and why community involvement is key.
