A contentious condominium development in Crescentwood will go ahead after all after city council voted in favour of it on Wednesday.

Council voted 11-5 in favour of a motion to allow the project from Ventura Developments to go ahead on a vacant lot on the corner of Harrow Street and McMillan Avenue

A local developer is ramping up its campaign to save a proposed Crescentwood condominium project and to get the city to adopt binding guidelines for future infill developments in mature neighbourhoods.
