Welcome back for another edition of From the Beehive! This week, Mike is walking us through another new development in the works near the Megasite. The design-build opportunity is Vicano's newest offering in St. Thomas. It's an incredible opportunity for growth and a well-positioned industrial property for access to distribution networks. More information is linked below. We are also testing out sharing some highlights of our amazing local small business community!

This week, feast your eyes on the incredible Le Cafe Siam at 392 Talbot St. in Downtown St. Thomas - if this video's end doesn't make you hungry, we'll be surprised! Mike has a few things to share with you today, including a first look at what Highbury will look like following the expansion! From site gates to the new City gateway, check out what the buzz is about this week. He may be on the road, but Mike is energized to share information with the community! Mike shares information about the upcoming Hydro One "St. Thomas Line" project in this week's episode. This new project will power Ontario’s growing electric vehicle industry, support future economic growth, and help bring thousands of jobs to southwest Ontario by connecting the new electric vehicle battery cell manufacturing facility in the City of St. Thomas to Ontario’s clean electricity grid. Full information about the project and the Class Environmental Assessment is available here, including access to more details about the February 21 & 22 public information sessions. Anyone with interest or concerns about the project should plan to attend these meetings to gain more valuable insight into Hydro One's plans. *Mike means a 20km transmission line. Way more efficient than a 200km line ;) Choreography is an important part of any stage production. Every entrance and exit is coordinated. Turns out, it's much the same on a construction site, albeit with fewer flourishes and less iambic pentameter. It's still an intricate process that requires thoughtful planning to coordinate the work being done on-site, especially as more elements get underway as the project progresses. In this week's episode, Mike takes us on a bit of a tour around the site and highlights some of the key elements of the staging plan and when we can anticipate some of the major site elements underway over the next few years. If you have questions about the construction process that you would like us to cover in more detail, leave us your questions in the comments or email us! Thanks for watching! |
