The Avenue Hanover – a 142 unit multi-family purpose built rental development is nearing “shovel-ready status”.
In under 12 months The GeoFocus Group has navigated the land acquisition process, due-diligence, design development and pre-construction phases of the project with its most recent success being the negotiation of a County and Municipal Tax Increment Equivalent Grant.
“As part of the deal, Hanover would forego an estimated $1.05 million to encourage construction of two six-storey, 71-unit rental apartments to bring 142 new rental units to town.” (Scott Dunn – Owen Sound Sun Times).
