TOWER-ING OPPORTUNITY IN ST. BONIFACE
Water Tower District development set for former Canada Packers site.
July 16, 2023 — “More than 22 years after the former Canada Packers building in St. Boniface was blown to a pile of rubble—and countless failed attempts at redeveloping the 165-acre site on which it resided since—plans to resurrect the massive plot of urban land are finally underway.
The Water Tower District, a mixed-use development that was initially proposed in 2019, will bring 70 acres of industrial land, 21 acres of commercial development and 25 acres of multi-family residential blocks to Winnipeg by 2033.”
