National tenant in new development ‘will only enhance this area'
Prep work is underway to get the property directly behind Home Depot on Windsor's east end on Tecumseh Road transformed into the new home of a major retailer. 'We gotta wait 'til the right time to say who and when,' said City Councillor Gary Kaschak, when asked if Costco is the major tenant. The company has been the long rumoured retailer expected to be part of this new development on the city's east end, but no confirmation from the company, the city or developer, Rocco Tullio and Rock Development. 'The tenants, you know, they make their own timelines and decisions as to when they want to make the announcement,' said Tullio, who points this will enhance the area and attract people from surrounding municipalities. Once the project is complete, he says there will be room at the back end of the 33-acre property for a additional tenants. 'It's just going to jumpstart this whole development, which is going to be great for the city of Windsor and people out in the east end,' Tullio said. Roads are being created on the east and west side of the property, and with them, Tullio says, comes the opportunity for the surrounding area to be developed. 'The Serbian lands have ten acres. There's other people from Toronto that own land and so when it's all developed, there's about 90 acres. You're talking about a million square feet, a million two square feet,' Tullio said. 'We're going to have something similar to the Walker Road corridor,' said Kaschak. 'I think, with many, many big box stores, lots of action, which should create lots of growth, lots of density and lots of taxes towards the city of Windsor.' Tullio says national retailers have shown significant interest in this area of Windsor. 'Now that the construction has started. You know, these nationals and all that. Hey, the city's open for business. This is a great node to be part of and, you know, I'm excited to see what the future holds for this development.'
