Visitors GuideCouncil agreed to grant an Approval-in-Principle for the proposed renovation and extension of the R.A. Templeton Building at 339-345 Water Street. The proposed $7.5 million renovation and extension will see an additional floor added to the existing building on the Water Street level as well as the development of Class A office space on Harbour Drive/Bishops Cove area.
One of the conditions of the Approval-in-Principle states that the property owner and his architectural consultant meet again with the Heritage Advisory Committee to discuss potential modifications to the Harbour Drive facade to determine if the building can be designed to be more in keeping with the architectural heritage character of this area.
Upon completion of this review process, the Heritage Advisory Committee will refer its recommendation on the Harbour Drive facade for Council's consideration and decision.
