| Waverley at Lee Boulevard Development |
Lee Boulevard bisects the area east from Shore Street near Pembina Highway all the way west to Brady Road. South of Lee has been filled with home for Richmond West for many years.
North of Lee has been home to South East Collegiate since 1995. The school has 160 aboriginal students from Grade 10 to 12. Beside the school is the South East Personal Care home built in 2011 for $21 million. The 80 bed facility for elderly Indian, Metis and Inuit was the first of its kind in Winnipeg.
Without anyone really taking notice, Lee Boulevard north has become a center for First Nations health and education.
A section of land beside the school used for baseball and soccer has now become very valuable as it situated beside the recently reconstructed Waverley and the quickly developing Waverley West with neighbourhoods of Bridgwater and South Pointe.

I see no reason why this project won't go ahead and be fairly successful. However, it is another reminder as to why concern over traffic along Waverley will will not go away.
The north and south traffic flows along Kenaston and Waverley will only continue as new and infill housing goes in.
A better response is probably needed for what surely will be traffic chaos along the streets.

Wow. I never even knew what the Canadian Nazarene College had become, once they vacated the premises in the 90's.
