236 Victoria St N | 40 & 35 fl | Proposed
#20
This is ridiculous. The fact that people are putting a climbing gym over housing hundreds of people is a hilarious reflection of how we got into the housing crisis in the first place. This site and all of the properties along victoria are a perfect locations for rezoning to mixed-use mid/high rise buildings. All of which could one day encourage Victoria to be selected as the east west leg of the LRT.

I feel bad for the gym, but they are a for profit business that can and will find an alternative location in 5-10 years when this building actually gets built. Maybe GRR should work closely with the developer of the Ottawa site to incorporate a unit that would accommodate a climbing gym. Developers will design spaces for specific tenants as long as there is a leasing contracts signed.
