Briefly in downtown St. Catharines and saw the progress on this highrise.

The only thing I like about this project is the density/height it will bring to downtown St. Catharines. The clock looks ridiculous and the rendering even has a spelling error.

Too bad the owner is a notorious slumlord treating Brock University student tenants terribly. I recall a couple of students had their refrigerator breakdown and the owner wouldn't budge until the students contacted the city and the city of St. Catharines told the owner he legally had to provide the student tenants with a working refrigerator so they finally got a new one.

It makes its presence known driving on the 406, or Westchester Ave. Looks even taller from the 406 because St. Paul St. is built up higher than the highway which is built in the 12 mile creek valley

If anyone's in St Kitts this summer, it would be great to get an update on this site!

From what I can tell online Carlisle Square is either open now or will be soon as units are listed to rent starting 1 November. Big boost to central St. Kits!

It’s interesting to see a steel-framed residential high-rise building going up. Steel-framed residential towers are quite rare in the region.

It doesn’t look ready
From today.

...I think it reflects a jurisdiction where not much goes on, I gather.

The downtown is in need of a lot life and rebuilding. Lots of room for housing and bike lanes.
I thought Arthur had the ugliest downtown in Ontario but I think Arthur is moving up the list and St. Catharines,…..

The former Rex Stimers and Garden City Arena (old age)

The former Gord’s Place (condo)

The former Welland House Hotel (fire)

Yes lots of oppurtunity. From what I have seen they are on the right track!

 

[Towered]

Welland is my top pick for ugliest downtown in Ontario.
