It’s been more than a decade in the making, but Hudson’s Bay Landing is again under new ownership and on its way to being finished.
Kamloops council has approved a development permit for phase three of the apartment complex, at 925 Victoria Street West, and construction has restarted on phase two, which has been sitting half-finished for several years.
Director of development services Marvin Kwiatkowski says it’s nice to see the property starting to get cleaned up.
“This is basically the final phase of basically a three-phase project dating back to originally 2008, when this came before council in a rezone application and a development permit application. Of course hard economic time came,” he says.
“In 2012, 975 Victoria Street West, 54 units were completed. At the same time the subdivision happened where there were three separate parcels. Back in 2017, there was another development variance permit that came before council for the northern property [phase two], so 945 and 955 Victoria Street West, the 89 units.”
Phase three will be a five-storey apartment with 77 rental units.
The development was first called Mission Hill before new owners rebranded it as Hudson’s Bay Landing, and the new owners – Traine Construction, based in Kelowna – will be planning to change its name once again.
