The four groups competing for the contract to develop up to 21.6 hectares of land at LeBreton Flats will now have until Dec. 15 to submit their proposals, the National Capital Commission said Tuesday.
The original plan was to have the submissions in by November, but the NCC said the extension was granted “at the request of proponents.”
Claridge Homes, Devcore Group, Focus Equities and RendezVous Lebreton Group are all competing for the right to build on the land.
