As per SpongeG's post in the retail thread, I can confirm that the company is indeed targeting the Victoria area for 2017, but no details are available regarding location.

Two-tower condo and rental development pitched for downtown Victoria lot
http://victoria.citified.ca/news/two-tower-condo-and-rental-development-pitched-for-downtown-victoria-lot/

Vancouver-based Chard Development has confirmed the purchase of a high-profile downtown Victoria property where the company plans to erect two residential towers, Citified has learned.

Officially designated as 848-852 Yates Street and 849 Johnson Street, the one-quarter hectare parcel – currently used as a surface parking lot for some 120 vehicles – is eyed as the future site of a rental tower fronting onto Johnson Street and a condo tower fronting onto Yates Street.

While building heights are yet to be determined, recent nearby residential developments have pushed upwards of 17-storeys and it is anticipated Chard will seek approvals in-keeping with the status quo.

Four-storey office and retail development planned for 900-block of Fort Street

Big plans are in the works for a small property at 950 Fort Street in downtown Victoria's Harris Green district, according to land owner de Hoog & Kierulf Architects.

A letter posted to the storefront window by the existing single-storey building's sole tenant, Daisy Chain Florists, informs customers that the site is envisioned to become a four-storey multi-use building with retail spaces on the ground floor and office space above.

de Hoog & Keirulf purchased the site earlier this year with the intent of redeveloping the land into a new head office. The firm's existing location is situated immediately across the street.

Adrian22 has just posted a new topic entitled "Allison Crowe and Band: Introducing / Heirs+Grievances - Saturday, October 29 @ Charlie White Theatre, MWC" in forum "Arts, Culture and Entertainment".

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Charlie White Theatre, Mary Winspear Centre, 2243 Beacon Avenue, Sidney V8L 1W9 - Saturday, October 29, 2016 @ 7:30 pm



l - r: Sarah White (mandolin, guitar, vocals); Allison Crowe (vocals, piano, guitar, fiddle & bodhran); Lin (cello, vocals); and Dave Baird (bass)

"No matter where Allison Crowe is in this world, that voice, that conviction, it crosses all borders. She's one of those rare artists that fits into any culture, any community because she is who she is - an incredible talent," observes Jeff Pitcher, Artistic Director of Theatre Newfoundland and Labrador.

And so it is that Nanaimo-born Crowe, home in Corner Brook, NL, on Canada's Atlantic coast for o'er a decade, finds her thrilling hybrid of Canadiana, Celtic, jazz, roots, folk, soul and rock loved deeply from the Hollywood Hills and Scottish Highlands to countries of Maritime and Mainland Southeast Asia and beyond. Since this Spring her unique repertoire, more than 159 original song recordings, plays in markets and street galleries throughout the republic of Portugal, land of Fado music. In recent years Crowe's toured with Canada's Royal Winnipeg Ballet, crowned a festival stage with the Master of the Queen's Music, and serenaded Clark Kent undercover in a Superman blockbuster.

Passionate universality is also an hallmark of her stellar band: Allison Crowe on lead vocals, piano, guitar, fiddle & bodhran; Lin, cellist and vocalist, hailing from Germany's Black Forest; Sarah White, mandolinist, guitarist and singer nurtured by Newfoundland & Nova Scotia; alongside Dave Baird, bassist, hatched on Vancouver Island.

The quartet seamlessly bridges Crowe's vital originals with fresh takes on traditional tunes spanning centuries as well as modern classics by Leonard Cohen, Annie Lennox, Gary O'Driscoll. The band's debut double-album, "Introducing / Heirs+Grievances", the 20th release from Rubenesque Records, is out now. Devon, UK-based music/arts writer Mike Ferguson, (posting in "Some Diurnal Aural Awe"), anticipates you'll be "royally entertained" by a show "full of the joy and fun that comes across on this cd's live offering".

You All Haunt Me - Allison Crowe and Band - Heirs + Grievances (https://vimeo.com/164032872) from Allison Crowe (https://vimeo.com/allisoncrowe) on Vimeo (https://vimeo.com).

"Heirs + Grievances is a gorgeous, full circle showcase of Allison's growth as a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Her extraordinary voice is unrestrained and beautifully accompanied by her bandmates," notes West Virginia-founded culture blog Muruch.

snub posted topic Victoria Rental Market Third Most Expensive In Canada

lpoutine,

snub has just posted a new topic entitled "Victoria Rental Market Third Most Expensive In Canada" in forum "Victoria and South Island Economy".

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Greater Victoria's rental market has become more expensive, according to PadMapper, an online service linking apartment hunters with available units.

The company says Victoria is the third most-expensive rental market in the country, leaping over Calgary since its last survey of major centres.

PadMapper ranks cities based on the listings it can find on its site and those on sites such as Craigslist or Kijiji.

The ranking is based on the median price paid for one- and two-bedroom units.

According to the company, Victoria is following trends seen in Vancouver, as the median price of a one-bedroom unit in Victoria increased 0.9 per cent to $1,080 in the last month, while the median price of a two-bedroom unit decreased 2.3 per cent to $1,340.

Vancouver and Toronto remain the two most-expensive rental markets. Median one-bedroom rent grew 2.9 per cent in Vancouver to $1,750, while the median two-bedroom rent declined 1.5 per cent to $2,680.

In Toronto, rents continued to soften, with one-bedroom rents decreasing 1.5 per cent to $1,310 and two-bedroom rents dropping 2.3 per cent to $1,680.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
http://dailyhive.com/vancouver/waterfront-events-district-northeast-false-creek


------------ QUOTE ----------
Much of the seawall and public waterfront spaces that now wrap most of the downtown Vancouver peninsula did not take form until the 1990s, when major redevelopment projects began at Coal Harbour and the Expo World's Fair lands.

For the most part, monotonous and generic green lawn parks front the newly developed waterfront areas by the seawall (http://www.vancitybuzz.com/2013/01/the-waldorf-is-the-tip-of-the-iceberg-new-condos-at-bc-place-and-rogers-arena-will-kill-false-creek-entertainment-district/), and these parks become quiet and arguably underutilized spaces for over half the year when the weather turns cold and wet.

But the new park and waterfront space planned for Northeast False Creek, the last remaining major parcel of undeveloped waterfront lands on the downtown peninsula, promises to change all of that after the demolition of the Dunsmuir and Georgia viaducts.

"After almost a century at Johnson and Vancouver streets and some 50 years in our 1960's-era building, we knew that we needed a new facility, and the options were to invest a lot of money into our downtown space or look at redeveloping our Sequoia Gardens Memorial funeral home in Saanich," said McCall's Vice President, Trevor McCall.

VicHockeyFan has just posted a new topic entitled "Christmas Craft Beer Show at SOFMC - Dec 2/3 2016" in forum "Arts, Culture and Entertainment".

----------------------------------------------------------------------
------------ QUOTE ----------
The best part about beer is that it can be enjoyed at any time of the year, and it should be celebrated in the same manner. At RG Properties, we recognized a void in the beer celebration calendar that needed to be rectified.

Most beer festivals are held throughout the summer months to take advantage of the beautiful relationship between warm weather and cold glass of suds. There are few things that go together so well, but having to wait through fall, winter and spring to get together again and see what is occurring in the industry by celebrating the delectable flavours seems very short sighted.

To bridge the gap, we have decided to have everyone raise a mug of holiday cheer and join us for the first ever Christmas Craft Beer Show at the Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre.

In our estimation, this is a great concept that will allow the multitude of fantastic local micro-breweries to gather together to display their seasonal products as well as their brewery favorites to both beer lovers and food and beverage professionals ahead of the holiday season.

This is an out of the box event for the Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre, but one we believe is needed in Victoria and will allow for all involved to garner exposure ahead of the most significant holiday season of the year and a chance for us all to enjoy a happy and prosperous New Year!
