“It’s gone from a nightmare to a dream come true.”
“Stirling Bridge,
the development firm planning the residential development,
embraced the concept of including residents in the process
and that has made all the difference.”

“This is a big day for the Mill-Courtland Woodside Park
community. City staff, developer Stirling Bridge and residents
have been working closely for a few years now to initiate a successful
redevelopment on this site that meets the needs of everyone.
And now it’s happening. I’m very proud of the collaborative,
open planning process that has brought us to today. It’s
a new way of doing things – a model for Kitchener and other
municipalities across the country.”

Kitchener Mayor

“This wonderfully designed project will also provide Kitchener
with a marquee example of a successful brownfield revitalization
and intensification development that fits seamlessly within the
central neighbourhoods of the city. This redevelopment can be
showcased to the region and the province as an early success
story that helps Kitchener to meet Ontario’s Growth Plan
for the Greater Golden Horseshoe.”
