Apartments are urgently needed in Newcastle.Sounds like a wonderful project.Let’s get on with it.
@Mary Kay Wilks:
False, there is already an abundance of vacant, overpriced apartments available throughout Newcastle. Check realtor.ca and you will find enough to satisfy any demand for the near future. What we urgently need is more schools, wider roads, larger water & sewer supplies and a variety of infrastructure before we even consider adding more and more apartments. There’s already at least half a dozen and at the prices they are, along with the fees on top, its cheaper to get a detached home.
