spans around 55 acres in a prominent area surrounded by Essa Roadway to the south, Anne Street to the east, the rail tracks to the north, and Highway 400 to the west. The Barrie Curling Club lies at the southeast edge of the property.Once home to the
Barrie Fairgrounds, the site now sits at the nexus of significant transport paths, minutes from employment nodes(and a five-minute drive from Allandale Waterfront GO Station, which links straight to Toronto’s Union Station). Preparation policies here consider significant intensification constant with Barrie’s long-term growth objectives, and the city’s vision for complete neighborhoods along the Essa/Bradford corridor. Current zoning is General Commercial(C4)and Highway Industrial(HI), and the City’s policy structure supports a broad mix of residential and non-residential uses– from townhouses to mid-and high-rise homes, retail and business, plus neighborhood and institutional space.Materials submitted with the City this spring overview an idea that considers approximately 3,185 to 3,234 homes overall, including 237– 286 townhouses as much as four storeys and around 2,948 condominium/apartment units across 9 towers, with podiums as much as 40 storeys. A centrally located primary school block of about 2.5 hectares(six acres)is also pictured, weaving education and open space into the heart of the plan. Potential buyers might
likewise pursue alternative mixed-use approaches tailored to market demand and community goals. KSV Advisory Beyond policy, the proposal here is scale and connectivity.
The site fronts a major arterial, sits less than a kilometre from Highway 400, is served by numerous Barrie Transit routes along Essa Road, and lies within quick reach of downtown and the city’s expanding waterfront trails and parks on Lake Simcoe. For Barrie– among Ontario’s fastest-growing metropolitan centres– a 55-acre infill canvas of this
profile does not occurred often.Specs Address: 175– 199 Essa Roadway through 50 Wood Street, Barrie Authorized Use: Broad mix of property and non-residential usages Bids: Must go beyond$35,913,000 Noted By: KSV Restructuring Inc.
