Keelesdale Drive has sat on it – this one house on it for many years next to the Kodac Plant, now with the plant gone and the site is to be developed by commercial developer Metrus Properties who purchased the land in 2006 for $19.5 million. Plans for the site have not yet been released by the company.
This house is a sweet anomaly in the area, being the one and only residential building on the block. The area is not like the Mulock/Hirons area where industry and houses have co-existed for decades – on Mulock Ave some sites are part house and part factory with in the same building.
In addition The Loblaw Companies are seeking the right to place a car wash and gas bar of the opposite SW corner of this house – on the site of their No Frills Store {city file on this – opens in new window}
