Riverbank Landing – Designed with our community
Boudreau Communities is pleased announce that a new application for the rezoning of the Riverbank Landing site has been submitted to the City of St. Albert for review. We would like to thank the many St. Albertans who have put in the time and effort to share their values and priorities with us, helping to make the design of Riverbank Landing a better fit for this community. This new application is the result of five months of public engagement activities. We heard St. Albertans’ comments about the height of the buildings, the site layout, and the traffic, and have worked to improve all those elements while still ensuring that Riverbank Landing will be a landmark destination offering shops, restaurants, services and premium living options that embrace all the natural beauty St. Albert has to offer.
