The former Desjardins IGA / Loeb store on Booth Street at Eccles has been closed for several years. Demolition is now underway, making way for the new Cornerstone housing project, a four storey 40 unit apartment residence.
The new Cornerstone residence, coupled with the now-under-construction Z6 condo building (16 of 26 units sold) will give a modern new face to tired Booth Street. Both buildings have traditional brick exteriors with modern design touches.
The last large remaining eyesore on the street is the blighted zone known as Cousin Eddey's garage/ Chado's auto repair. The only saving grace there is that it is a large lot, which will make some developer happy some day.
