The Mercantile on Douglas is a mixed-use multi-tenanted commercial property located at the Northern edge of the downtown core, home to well known local businesses such as Discovery Coffee and Yonni’s Doughnuts. The entire building is set to undergo extensive exterior renovations, benefiting all existing and future tenants at this location.

In addition to the wide range of amenities and residential density in the area, there are a number of new developments that will provide commercial and residential growth to the neighbourhood. This rapidly expanding area is going to become another one of Victoria's most densely populated areas. The location graphic shows the many developments happening within a two block radius, highlighted amongst these is Chard Developments 3 tower mixed-use project, comprising 540 residential units and 96,000 square feet of mixed commercial, anchored by a large full-service grocery store. In addition to this, Nicola Wealths mixed use project, coined the Spencer Block, will be adding more than 278 new homes to the area, and Le Fevre & Company will be bringing an additional 257 residential units. Finally, Reliance Properties is working on their near 7 acre mixed use development which would bring 3 towers, commercial space, and the potential new home for the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria.
