Yes November 2025. It normally takes about 4 months for them to open from the start of construction. The last grading shot from yesterday is the actual spot the warehouse will be built on. If that's okay for foundation work they can start there and work on leveling the parking areas, etc., afterwards.

I have a hard time believing that there is still a massive pile of fill on the site from the subdivision next door as well as there's one excavator and two rock trucks working over there tops but if more equipment starts arriving on site I will be the first to post pictures this area is going to be crawling with construction with this and phase two of the casino under way

Exciting little highway 26 zone forming here now. Good job by Wasaga Beach, council.

Thanks for the reply. That’s amazing. Costco is one of the last brands I trust can’t wait to come do some Christmas shopping here soon.

Gunna try and do a Wasaga/Collingwood update run this weekend no movement on any of the blue mountain or Meaford spaces ATM but Collingwood and Wasaga seem to be kicking into gear

SoPad does look like it is near completion wondering if we will start to see more equipment arriving on our site who knows maybe they'll actually put a fence up

Still working on the absolute monster of a pad looking at the elevation The grade is going to be a lot higher than the houses next to it which is kind of curious

I just drove by this morning and it looks like they are widening the road (Ramblewood) beside the Costco site – my guess is to create a dedicated turning lane into or out of the future parking lot. There are also some sewer pipes and components on site in addition to the land grading work. Didn't snap any photos, but I will next time I'm there. Looks like things are starting to move a little faster.

 

[Collingwoodbuildinglover]

massive amounts of progress on the pad as well as clearing out for the turning lane as mentioned above @8three

Looks like grading is completed. And they are ready to go, even putting up signage on Highway 26 showing off the new location.

 

[Collingwoodbuildinglover]

Yeah there was quite a bit going on there when I went by today they pretty well have the pond Dug pad looks pretty well complete and there was also a truck with forms on site today

You'd think they'd find some way to have an access from Highway 26

 

[PurplePinky]

They are saying opening 2026 probably was a lame thread to make but just another spot to take pictures of whenever I'm out for drives

There is a road (Lyons) that separates the property from Hwy 26. Even without that, it is unlikely they would be permitted access. Hwy 26 is divided at that location and it on a curve.

If/when they do highway 26 bypass of Stayner I wonder how it would look and if they could accommodate an entrance.
