Renovation of the Comox Mall continues

Renovation of the Comox Mall continues, which includes the removal of a middle portion of the mall for additional parking and easier storefront access and upgrades to all three floors of the building. Some office space on this level is available to lease to new tenants. The renovation is expected to be complete late this fall. Construction of a separate one-storey building to be facing Comox Avenue is expected to begin soon.

New multi-residential project proposed for 31st Street and Cliffe Avenue in Courtenay

The owner of a proposed multi-residential housing project at the southeast corner of 31st Street and Cliffe Avenue in Courtenay expects to submit a building permit application this month, with construction beginning in late October or early November, once all approvals are in place. Once begun, the project will take approximately nine months to complete.
