These buildings are 3 floors with no basements, so I suspect the stairs that are shown go down to a front door and very small entryway on the main floor, then the apartment is on the second and third floor.
I hope they can get a really good head start on servicing these lands this year, if they haven't started already. I know they are working hard on the lands between this and the current development, but with the pace of townhouse construction now they will quickly run out of plots to build on (for townhomes - multi-family is obviously a different story).
Those low slanted roofs are fascinating. I've never seen a build like that, does anyone have any renders for how that will look once completed? Can't see anything that resembles it on Encore's site.
That makes a lot more sense now that I think about it, thanks. It just looked very 'complete' on a quick glance

Off-site construction is the solution to the housing shortage imo. Paired with lowered development charges and municipal red tape, it could bring back the kind of supply rush we've not seen in decades.Sign Up | LinkedIn

This company is doing good things for Blatchford! They appear to be working on all of the Landmark and Encore homes now. The pace is awesome. Let's hope they are involved in a 4-6 storey build soon!
This is one of the things that does bother me about the neighbourhood, and which seems a mismatch for the density. The whole pneumatic tube trash collection thing was definitely a bridge too far, but the usual trash collection method is extremely suburbia oriented, and the density is enough that our alleys are absolutely packed with bins, especially where many houses are actually three different units with their own pair of bins each, plus recycling bags to put out on trash days.
