Windmill has done “more than anyone else” in region to engage with Algonquin, developer says
The massive Windmill redevelopment on the Ottawa River shoreline, which is land considered sacred to First Nations peoples, is seeking aboriginal construction workers.
Windmill Developments and Toronto’s Dream Corporation plan to build a $1.2-billion residential, commercial and retail community on the Chaudière and Albert Islands starting this fall.
The 37-acre site, which includes the downtown Gatineau, Que., riverfront, is also expected to include condominium buildings, a boutique hotel, shops, waterfront parks and a network of pedestrian and cycling paths.
