Water Tower District

Shovel-Ready Multi-Family Land for Sale in Winnipeg’s Newest Mixed-Use Development Rare opportunity to acquire shovel-ready, multi-family land in one of Winnipeg's most exciting new master-planned communities. Located at the southeast corner of Marion Street and Archibald Street in St. Boniface, the Water Tower District is a 165-acre mixed-use community being developed by Olexa Developments Ltd. on the former Canada Packers/Public Markets site. With plan approval already secured for 2,800 multi-family units — including traffic, water, and waste approvals — site services are completed, and developers can move directly from acquisition to construction. Several parcels are already conditionally sold, making this a time-sensitive opportunity for developers looking to establish a presence in this high-demand corridor. The district is designed around walkability, transit, and community living. With eight transit stops within the development, 150,000+ SF of planned on-site retail, and over 22 acres of parks and green space, the Water Tower District offers everything future tenants need within their neighbourhood. A fully signalized intersection, active transportation paths throughout, and direct access to major highway routes make this one of the best-connected development sites in the city. Situated just minutes from Downtown Winnipeg, St. Boniface General Hospital, and several post-secondary institutions, the Water Tower District sits within a strong and growing urban market. With 90 acres of adjacent employment lands supporting approximately 700 jobs, developers can be confident in durable, long-term rental demand from the moment their doors open.
