General Urban Cambridge Updates and Rumours

[gomesjustin]

Cambridge Council will be considering a request for a MZO for the property next to the old Len's Mills building at their April 27 meeting. The developer is proposing to build 1,500 to 1,800 units. Here is the link for the agenda, the report starts on page 491: Council Agenda

Everything I have read about the old Lens Mill Textile Factory conversation, says a Max of 140 condo apartment units. Pretty big difference traffic wise from 1,500-1,800 units. I’m not able to pull up the council agenda, keeps timing out, but more info on 211-215 Queen St W is here: https://www.cambridge.ca/en/build-invest...tions.aspx

“The applicant is proposing to redevelop the existing textile factory with a maximum of 140 condominium apartment uses and approximately 1,900 square metres (20,451ft²) of ground floor commercial uses, redevelop the existing one-storey buildings for approximately 1,430 square metres (15,392.39ft²) of commercial uses, construct a 4 storey residential building with approximately 20 residential units and a 8 storey residential building with approximately 110 residential units. The proposed development also includes a waterfront trail development and 260 parking spaces”
