There's an empty expanse in the middle of Barrhaven the size of 15 rugby fields, and Claridge Homes sees townhouses, highrise condo buildings and parks in its future.
On March 23, the city’s planning committee will consider an application by Claridge to build 667 residential units, a small parkette and a larger park with a multi-use trail on the 15.5-hectare lot at 3370 Greenbank Rd.
The land lies along the west side of Greenbank Road, just north of Jock River, and is vacant except for a single abandoned farmhouse and some farm buildings in the southeast corner.
