If the approval of this new development keeps moving along as smoothly as it has so far, View Royal will soon have an entirely new commercial, retail, and residential centre right next the Victoria General Hospital.
At the Preferred Homes Team we have been following this project for some time and have met with Omicron, the developer, to offer feedback and suggestions in relation to the residential component of their development. From what we have seen, we believe strongly that they are on the right track.
Right now, there is very few amenities in the immediate area. Homeowners who live nearby have to travel to Colwood or to Saanich for groceries and other needs. With the large hospital next door, and many great tenants already signed, this project has the ability to transform the area in a very positive way. We believe that it even could have a positive effect on traffic by creating more good paying jobs outside of the core.
All in all, this is probably one of the best planned and most needed retail, commercial, and residential development proposals that we have seen for some time.
