- Clipper Passage Street Offering a number of development opportunities this property is already serviced by 14 laterals on a public street with underground wiring. The owner has prospective plans for a unique 10 garden home development on this site with elevation plans. The existing 28 homes in Bentley Crossing have proven to be very popular and very much in demand. The location is ideal, being close to the uptown Saint John either by a 5 minute drive or 15 minute walk along the popular Harbour Passage beside the harbour that has the highest tides in the world. It is within walking distance of the TD Station, the Imperial Theatre and all the restaurants, bars and shopping of the uptown. It is also less than a 5 minute drive to the west side of the City and within walking distance of the Moosehead Small Batch Brewery, the Reversing Falls Restaurant, the Reversing Falls Lookout and just a few minute walk to the New Brunswick Museum which is about to undergo a major expansion. The YMCA is just a few minute drive from the site. In short, Bentley Crossing is in a perfect location for quick access to all areas of the city. Depending on the house designs there is plenty of potential for harbour and Saint John River views, including the cruise ships and fireworks. Behind the property is a provincially designated historic site that prevents development. Bentley Crossing is one of the only housing developments (as opposed to apartments) in such close proximity to the uptown. That makes parking so much easier. (id:203)
