Condo Devlopments Adding Child Care Space
December 17th, 2008It seems that more and more condo developments in downtown Vancouver may be adding childcare spaces. There is one specifically that will be opening next year, Atelier on Robson. I think this is great for a city that is in desperate need of more spaces for childcare.
I find it interesting in the Georgia Straight article on this topic, upscale condo realtor Nahid Aghamolla states that buyers in these upscale condos don’t care about childcare, don’t have children and never ask about it. Well As I do not have experience in that market I cannot argue the point, but seems to me that is a narrow point of view to take, I am sure people with money also have children form time to time and will care about such facilities at some point. I assume they are normal people as well, even if they are marketed to as something other than normal.
At any rate, I think this is a great initiative and hope to see more of it.
