Chapters Indigo to open at Amazing Brentwood

I have received word from an insider that Chapters Indigo will have a large presence in the retail area currently under construction at the Amazing Brentwood development.  The insider was unable to give me an exact opening timeline but stated that the existing smaller Coles bookstore in the mall will close down as the new Chapters Indigo store opens.  Chapters can be added to the list of confirmed companies landing in Brentwood, including Cineplex and its array of Rec Room dining amenities and L Catterton Real Estate which is affiliated with luxury brands like Louis Vuitton.

4430 Halifax Street slated for development

I was recently informed by my family doctor that his medical office will close down this spring after nearly 40 years in Brentwood.  In a letter to his patients the doctor stated that the area around his office as having "become a go-to area for high-rises, and my office is located in one such new development."

From open source searches, it appears that the building is currently owned by Embassy Bosa Development Corporation.  More to follow as details emerge.

4612 and 4650 Dawson Rezoning initiated

Rezoning has been initiated to build street front townhouses along Dawson between Beta and Alpha Aves with apartment buildings behind them.  The developer is yet to be identified.  With the south side of Dawson Street between Willindgon and Alpha already being forwarded for a massive development by Aoyuan International and the Concord Brentwood site moving ahead, the entire length of the south side of Dawson from Willingdon to Douglas Rd will be nearly completed with residential developments.
