Life In Balance
We, at Boudreau Communities, are excited to say that a new application for rezoning of the Riverbank Landing site has been submitted to the City of St. Albert.
Thank you, St. Albertans, for putting in the effort and time to share with us what is important to you in the design of Riverbank Landing and all that it will bring to St. Albert.
After 5 months of Public Engagement Activities, Boudreau Communities has worked diligently on the redesign of the Riverbank Landing site layout, both to incorporate community feedback and ensure it will be a landmark destination offering shops, restaurants, services and premium living options, all embracing nature.
Riverbank Landing Redesigned
Riverbank Landing, a Live, Work, Play, development has so much to offer all of St. Albert and surrounding area. Things we heard were important, a choice of quality living options to call home, just the right amount of retail and services, access to the best of nature in the river valley and the Red Willow Trail System and walking paths, a destination restaurant, coffee shop, bakery, ice cream stand, food truck all right there to hit the spot and be enjoyed in beautiful outdoor green spaces and places to meet up with friends are all still here. We’ve kept the best and changed the things we heard were concerning.
What’s Changed?
Building Heights
Building heights have been greatly reduced by half, from 100 meters to a maximum of 50 meters.
Over All Density
The number of residential units has been reduced from 466 to a maximum of 360. Commercial space has also been reduced.
Traffic
We have worked hard to reduce traffic impacts by reducing overall density and being strategic in mixing uses in our walkable community. In fact the traffic engineer has stated that the proposed development is projected to generate between 30%-50% fewer trips than as if developed with the commercial C2 and low density residential in the current ASP.
We’ve Kept the Best!!!
Access to Greenspaces and Outdoors
This beings with pocket parks and a village square connected by on site walking paths for all of St. Albert to enjoy. Boudreau Communities will work with the City and the Province and attempt to connect the Red Willow Trail System on the north side of the river and add a launching point or dock to the river.
The Comforts in Life
A signature destination restaurant is still a big a part of Riverbank Landing as well as cafés, gourmet shops and the boutique shopping experience. And to provide the supports we need in life professional, medical, health and spa service will still have a place to set up shop.
