Rental rates released as construction of The Addison continues

The pre-leasing process is expected to start in the coming weeks for a new apartment on Afton Drive.

Vensuris Group of Companies Vice President of Growth & External Affairs, Lauren Pomerleau said people will be able to apply to confirm a suite inside The Addison.

"We are actually going to be opening a model suite in mid to late March, where people will be able to book a timeslot to come and view what a one bedroom will look like, and learn more about the building and put in an application then as well," said Pomerleau.

The six storey building, at the southeast corner of the London Road Shopping Centre, has 70 one and two bedroom units.

"Our one bedroom [apartments] are going to start at $1,495 per month and our two bedrooms will be starting at $2,175 per month. Those are both, plus utilities."

Pomerleau said each suite is individually metered.

"Our building has been designed to be 44 per cent more energy efficient than code. So, we've got great insulation, and windows. We anticipate that utility costs will actually be lower because of the efficiency of the building itself."

Pomerleau said there continues to be a lot of interest in the building.

"We do have a wait list, and I would encourage anyone that's interested in either applying or just receiving more information about The Addison to reach out to be added to our waitlist."

She said those on the wait list will be prioritized.

Pomerleau said lots of progress is being made on the inside and outside of the building.

"Over the past week, we have sealed our concrete floor, we've added insulation, drywall is going up. We've got some of our tubs and our fixtures being installed on certain floors and on the outside our masons and bricklayers are there. You'll be starting to see some of the brick work going up and some of the exterior siding over the next few weeks."

Each unit will have its own washer and dryer, central air, stainless steel appliances and a private balcony.
