Work is continuing to clear the land of debris and trees for the planned redevelopment of the former United Canadian Malt building site at Lansdowne and Park streets.

The Malt building may soon be converted into apartments — and the cleared vacant land along Lansdowne Street to the west may get three new commercial/residential buildings.

Located across from Home Depot, the property is owned by David and J.R. McGee, the brothers who run the Jack McGee car dealership on Clonsilla Avenue. They're also developers.
