Ladner, a small Lower Mainland town set within the larger, fast-growing municipality of Delta, B.C., is starting to get a taste of higher density development more common among its neighbours, reported Real Estate News Exchange (RENX). "Updates to zoning rules in Ladner and to Delta's Official Community Plan mean the small city of 23,000 people is starting to see larger condo developments proposed and approved, say stakeholders focused on building and selling new homes in the riverside town."   "The concept of multifamily housing has rarely been available in Ladner Village in the past, but now Headwater Projects is pre-selling a six-storey condo and commercial building called Bridge & Elliott." https://lnkd.in/gZEspWuK #ladner #development #mixeduse

The Stratford Sphere or 2,000 new homes? Approved by the LLDC, refused by The Mayor of London and now taken over by Michael Gove, the Stratford Sphere does not lack controversy. Our latest walk-through shows how we could fit nearly 2,000 new homes for 3000 people on the site instead. Not only this, the site could generate a gross development value of over £730 million, with a build cost of £281 million. Importantly, It can also provide 12,000 square metres of open space, ensuring ample amenities and play areas. #StratfordSphereAlternative #SmartUrbanPlanning #SustainableHousing #HighDensityLiving #PropertyTechInnovation #LondonRealEstate #FutureOfHousing #CommunityBuilding #AffordableLiving #EcoFriendlyDevelopment

Swanscombe - New Development It's interesting to see The Wheatshea Pub will be turned into flats. It's the second pub on same street turning into flats. It is 1min to Swanscombe Train station, right on the High Street. There are already over 15,000 homes in development for Ebbfleet Garden City carved out of Swanscombe and it's environs. Some will like the idea while some will be annoyed by this new development. I think given the level of residential development and population increase in the area, there should be careful planning on commercial spaces, as there will be a lot more demand for local services/business. What do you think of this project? Generally, do you think it's a good time to buy property in Swanscombe? #swanscombe #pub #dartford #newbuild #property #greenhithe #propertyinvestment

$146.4M value loss in 23 years. But that loss is a catalyst for something new for Gwinnett Place Mall. Much-needed housing is a big part of the redevelopment plan. The "residential-heavy plan, called Global Villages, would create a central park as the communal nucleus, remake all roadways as Complete Streets with connections to other key points in Duluth, and enhance transit with possible bus-rapid-transit options and a new transit center." Redevelopment requires ingenuity, some adaptive reuse, and a lot of unique building product applications. #buildingproducts #commercialdevelopment #housinginnovation #constructionverse https://lnkd.in/gBWGT3MQ
