Exciting Development Proposed for Barrie!
Barrie is a vibrant and picturesque waterfront community known for its stunning natural beauty and abundant recreational opportunities. Located along serene shores, it offers residents and visitors a unique blend of relaxed coastal living and modern conveniences. With Yonge Street just minutes away, the area provides easy access to key amenities and transportation.
Midnight Group is excited to introduce a transformative new residential development that aligns with Barrie’s strategic growth plans. A Zoning By-law Amendment has been submitted to convert consolidated properties into a thriving new residential community. The proposal features two modern 6-storey towers, offering a total of 456 purpose-built rental apartments designed to enhance the urban living experience.
Key Features of the Proposed Development for Barrie:
- Prime Location: Convenient access from Ashford Drive and Montgomery Drive
- Parking & Accessibility: 32 surface parking spaces and 329 underground spaces for residents’ convenience
