St. John’s Gives Green Light to East End Condos

A major residential development for downtown St.John’s has been given the green light. St. John’s City Council has given the okay for six residential condominium buildings to be located on the former Standard Manufacturing site on Water Street East. Each building will have eight units for the total of 48 and there will be one level of indoor parking. Condos of this status are much needed in the downtown core. The condos will be a great attraction for oil companies, investors and new employees moving to Newfoundland due to the oil and gas industry.
