Townline is a local construction company with deep-rooted appreciation for people. This is why they were selected to do the work for Wisteria Place, including development, construction, and city liaising. Project Manager Melissa Freeman keeps us up to date and keeps the project going with great focus and integrity!

During COVID-19, the Wisteria Place project at 4388 Garry Street continues very well and the safety of the workers and visitors is of utmost importance. The bones of the project are close to done and we are about to see the exterior work—like windows, bricks, and roof—coming very soon! So exciting! Walk on by and see for yourself. We are aiming at completion by the end of 2020. Stay tuned for details!
