St. Catharines has exploded with the promise of new growth over the past few years. This year, we saw the completion and grand-opening of two new major downtown landmarks, the groundbreaking and construction of massive retail developments along Fourth Avenue as well as, major investments in public infrastructure.
There are many new growth opportunities across the city and in particular in the downtown core, which is ripe with revitalization hope. On the other side of commercial development, is a boom of residential development, particularly investment in high-density builds. Between high rise student residence builds, luxury condominiums and new townhouse developments the city seems to be expanding upwards rather than out.
Economic Development St. Catharines
The city of St. Catharines economic development team posits recent economic growth through private and public development at $1.6 billion. This number sees a combined mixture of residential, commercial, industrial and institutional developments. The “InvestIn” campaign focuses on growing the city through four industries; digital media, health and wellness, bioscience and manufacturing. The other focus that remains strongs is on fostering a downtown renaissance.
The St. Catharines development map, clearly shows how the efforts of the InvestIn campaign are impacting downtown St. Catharines.
