From the President of the reAltors Association of
hamilton-burlington The greater Hamilton area has received a lot of
interest lately as a place to live and invest. The areas position
as a transportation hub for Southern Ontario, the forthcoming Light
Rail Transit (LRT) for major Hamilton corridors, the prospect of
all-day GO services between Hamilton and Toronto, the excitement of
this years Pan Am Games, and the growth of the high tech sector are
just a few of the reasons our area is receiving so much
attention.
Hamiltons downtown is undergoing a major revitalization with the
new McMaster Health Campus, which is expected to be an additional
catalyst for residential and commercial growth in the area.
Hamilton also enjoys a vibrant arts community and active
cultural life. Historic areas such as Ottawa Street, Concession
Street and James
Street North have seen a resurgence in recent years. Communities
such as Waterdown, Dundas,Ancaster, Stoney Creek and Westdale have
retained their unique identities and draw residents attracted to
the distinct ambience they offer.
With so much going on economically and culturally, Hamilton
offers a stable real estate market, and home ownership itself has
proved to be a wise investment. The area has communities of all
sizes and which offer all kinds of housing types with prices that
range from affordable to luxury.

the cottoN FActory: Hamiltons Industrial Past renewed as
Hamiltons Creative Future. Its been just over a year since Rob
Zeidler bought the Cotton Factory on three acres at 270 Sherman
Ave. N. For the past year, the building has been undergoing a
21stcentury makeover geared to creative industry tenants and
special event space, with a new co-working space for short and
longer-term lease.
The key element is that we are not merely building new studios
and leasing out space. We are building a creative community here at
the Cotton Factory.We are working hard to attract a wide variety of
tenants: artists, photographers, post-production, craftspeople,
graphic designers, film studios, design engineers and marketing
firms, says Zeidler. We are building out our studios and offices to
promote a cross-pollination between our tenants and we are already
seeing the results. Two of our tenants, a custom wood worker and a
sign painter, are working together to create bespoke residential
front doors with unique glass designs.
The Cotton Factory has spaces from 500 to 10,000 square
feet.While our existing built-out units are 100 percent leased, we
are creating new suites in the complex on an almost monthly
basis.With stunning views of Hamiltons skyline and the escarpment
behind it, 15 foot ceilings and hardwood floors, the Cotton Factory
is a truly unique workspace says Zeidler.
When our co-working space - the Cotton Club - opens in October,
we will expand the Cotton Factory community to include start-up
entrepreneurs, not-for-profits, and social innovators says
Zeidler.The Cotton Club co-working space will offer shared desks,
rental offices, a classroom, a kitchenette and rental
mailboxes.
Zeidler hired Annette Paiement, formerly with the Hamilton Art
Gallery and Harbourfront Centre in Toronto, as director of
filming and events. Up to 10 per cent of the Cotton Factory is
available for special events including weddings, fundraisers, film
and video shoots and celebrity chef dinners. She hopes it will
become a hub for the tenants and the wider community.
The goal is to create spaces in the building that create
collision between tenants and hence the opportunity to create
community, says Paiement. In November, the Cotton Factory will host
the first event, Factory Frost that will be entirely
tenant-driven.
Rob Zeidler, 54, has had a long career in property management in
Toronto, including running Queens Quay Terminal and the Hudsons Bay
Centre.Twenty years ago, his sister, Margie Zeidler, went to work
at 401 Richmond in Toronto, a turn-of-thecentury tin factory thats
now home to 130 microenterprises and artists of every stripe.
Zeidler says that he purchased the Cotton Factory because
Hamilton is a city that hustles.As an example, when he wanted to
add bicycle racks to promote cycling to work, Zeidler called the
City. In a week there was a site visit and 4 days later, the racks
had been installed. Hes watched Glen Norton, the citys manager of
urban renewal, successfully lure Toronto businesses to
Hamilton.That pitching must not let up, Zeidler says.

NeW emPloymeNtlANds oPeN uP iN hAmiltoN 1700 acres of Airport
District Land Now Available
The City of Hamilton is home to nine business parks/districts
which offer a wide variety of buildings for sale or lease and
vacant parcels of land for future development opportunities.The
newest is located in the southern portion of the City of Hamilton
and include the lands surrounding the John C. Munro Hamilton
International Airport, now referred to as the Airport Employment
Growth District or AEGD.
The main message to the public is after 11 years, the AEGD is
now finished, said Councillor Lloyd Ferguson of Ward 12 in
Ancaster, adding that these developments will eventually means a
lot of new jobs and a lot of new tax revenue.
The AEGD is close to 1700 acres all together and includes both
the Airport Business Park and the Airport Employment Growth
District. Zoning is in place as are Servicing Master Plans and
funding. Guy Paparella, Director Growth Planning is leading the
processes.
As to where it currently stands,in February the Ontario
Municipal Board approved the final configuration for the Airport
Employment Growth District and weve hired a company to develop an
Implementation Strategy including a listing of all the capital
projects to be funded and constructed over the next five years,
Paparella says.In the meantime weve had

a lot of movement in the area with sales of land to companies
looking to locate here. Our main issue is to ensure servicing is
available.To date weve had two commercial subdivision
proposals.
The AEGD surrounds the John C. Munro Hamilton International
Airport with land along Highway 6 and the Glancaster Road area, as
well as along Dickenson Road West which will be the main trunk so
theres a lot of interest, says Paparella.
Because of the provincial growth figures (projecting another
50,000 jobs by 2041), we may need to expand to the other side of
Highway 6 out to Fiddlers Green, right up to the Green Belt
boundary because its the only space left for the City.
The City of Hamilton is also currently updating information on
all business parks and that should be completed by the end of
2015.
Its a 40-50 year plan so its not going to happen overnight
because other than the Bayfront area, this will be our main
employment growth area moving forward along with the Red Hill
Business Park which is filling up, says Paparella.We have to start
targeting who we want to see in the area. Weve got to make sure we
move efficiently and effectively to create jobs and start creating
more municipal assessment for the area.
REIN (Real Estate Investment Network) of Canada has repeatedly
ranked Hamilton as the top location in which to invest in
Ontario.
the Airport business Park is located in the southern portion of
the city of hamilton, above the escarpment. the lands have a gross
site area of approximately 735 acres primarily located on the west
side of highway No. 6, east of the hamilton international Airport.
in addition, the city of hamilton has established a special policy
area within the Official Plan to study further for the creation an
employment area known as the Airport employment Growth district
over the next several years. the study is intended to provide for
the development of employment lands surrounding the hamilton
international Airport and along highway 6 critical to meet the
needs of the citys growing population.
Known formerly as a hard-working steel town, the City has
quickly shed this image in the eyes of potential investors as
indicated by the record breaking building permit values Hamilton
has experienced in recent years, says REIN founding partner Don
Campbell.
We need to do this if we want to continue being one of the best
places to invest and create jobs - instead of relying on thousands
of residents commuting to Toronto, says Hamilton City Councillor
Sam Merulla.

AirPort Real Estate options include business parks, commercial
land, office towers and manufacturing space
Theres a lot happening in Hamilton. The Real Estate Investment
Network of Canada (REIN) has ranked Hamilton as the top location in
which to invest in Ontario for a third straight year. And the city
has received two Brownie Awards from the Canadian Urban Institute
for brownfield redevelopment achievements,
including a project at the CANMET Materials Technology
Laboratory.
A large part of this recognition comes from the successful and
ongoing development of Hamiltons nine business parks/districts
which offer a wide variety of buildings for sale or lease and
vacant parcels of land for future development opportunities.While
all offer these options, employment and economic growth will centre
on three based on land availability, employment growth, and city
infrastructure investments.
First is the Airport Business Park and the recent creation of
the Airport Employment Growth District (AEGD) with approximately
close to 790 gross acres along the New
Highway 6 as well as Dickenson Road West to meet the needs of
the Citys growing population. John C. Munro Hamilton International
Airport, located in the heart of the AEGD, and is the largest
express air cargo airport in Canada. In 2013, over 75,000 tonnes of
cargo was moved through the Airport by airline partners including
Cargojet, Purolator, Canada Post, UPS, and DHL.
On July 30, 2015 Cargojet celebrated the new $12 million Cargo
Centre with a Grand Opening at the Airport. Cargojet will be anchor
tenant of the 77,000 square foot facility, occupying approximately
half of the space.
This facility will allow us to maintain Hamilton International
Airports dominant
presence in the overnight express cargo segment in Canada, and
create new opportunities to diversify the types of goods that can
be processed through the Airport, said Frank Scremin, President and
CEO of John C. Munro Hamilton International Airport.
The Red Hill Business Park (formerly Hamilton Mountain Business
Park and the North Glanbrook Industrial Business Park) has a total
of 710 gross acres of employment land and is strategically located
at the junction of the Lincoln Alexander Parkway and the Red Hill
Valley Parkway. continued on next page

continued from previous page The business parks location is five
minutes
from the Queen Elizabeth Way, 7 minutes from Highway 403 in
Ancaster, minutes from all four major modes of transportation
(road, rail, air, port), and a prime industrial location between
Toronto and the Eastern United States.
On July 17, 2015 Fibracast Inc., a division of Burlingtons
Anaergia, broke ground on a 91,000-square-foot facility in the Red
Hill Business Park.The $30-million high-tech water facility is
expected to bring 100 jobs to Hamilton.Anaergia founder and CEO
Andrew Benedek said the company looked for a place to expand all
over southern Ontario, but chose Hamilton for its skilled labour
force, its proximity to markets, and city staff who worked hard to
secure a deal.
We are very pleased that after developing our unique membranes
in the Hamilton area, our new technologically advanced membrane
production facility will also be here, John Tomescu, chief
executive officer of Fibracast.Fibracast is the only company
manufacturing immersed water treatment membranes in North America,
and with this new facility Fibracast will become a top-tier global
supplier.The Hamilton area has world-class water engineering,
manufacturing expertise and supply-chain support to successfully
compete with any membrane-manufacturing location in the world.
McMaster Innovation Park functions as a centre of innovation for
corporate, academic, and government research in science and
technology.The Atrium@MIP is a hub of innovation within the park
with an eclectic mix of over 50 tenants ranging from small business
start-up accelerators to advanced research labs linked to the
research strengths of McMaster University.The site features design,
build and leaseback options on fully serviced sites with Brownfield
redevelopment available.
Germanys Fraunhofer- Gesellschaft, and Fraunhofer IZI chose
Hamilton to create the Fraunhofer McMaster Project Centre for
Bio-Engineering and Advanced Manufacturing (BEAM).The 80,000 square
foot state-of-the-art research facility, slated
to open at McMaster Innovation Park in 2016 and is anticipated
to create up to 100 jobs and attract top scientists and industry
researchers from around the world.The centre will conduct applied
research in cell therapy research and development, diagnostics
development, novel biomaterials and advanced manufacturing methods/
automation.
Hamilton is recognized as a global leader in manufacturing
research and development, and has gained international acclaim for
its work in health and life sciences research, says McMaster
president, Patrick Deane.The Fraunhofer partnership will complement
the kinds of initiatives in which were already
www.investinhamilton.ca/locate-expand
engaged and allow us to move our research into the marketplace,
creating health and economic benefits for generations to come.
While located in a more established business park the East
Hamilton Industrial Area is located in the north-east end of the
City adjacent to the Red Hill Valley Parkway and QEW.The area is
approximately 560 acres and is bounded by Nash Road in west, Grays
Road in the East, Barton to the south and QEW to the north Gay Lea
Foods Co-operative Limited acquisition of Salerno
Dairy on February 1, 2014, bringing together a farmer-owned
co-operative and a family-owned business and securing its longevity
in Hamilton.
This acquisition holds great promise for the years ahead, says
Andrew MacGillivray, president and CEO of Gay Lea Foods.

hAmiltoN A PlAce you cANWrAPyour Arms ArouNd Urban beauty,
wonderful architecture, tree-lined streets, very friendly people
and lower costs for real estate
Global debt and economic uncertainty dominate contemporary
discussions yet in Hamilton, much of that uncertainty has been
mitigated by the overall sense of Hamiltons positive character,
years of efforts to renew and revitalize broadly, and in doing so
improve the quality of life for all residents. Its also what has
been attracting investors and new residents to Hamilton.
Ralph Benmergui, is an award winning broadcaster and journalist,
husband and the father of four boys, and currently works as the
Executive Director of Strategic Initiatives and Partnerships at
Sheridan College while training to become a Spiritual Director. Its
this quality of life that first attracted him to Hamilton but what
he wasnt expecting was the deep sense of community shared by his
neighbours.
My job is now with Sheridan in Oakville and the commute is less
than half from Toronto. Its more than that though. I was born and
lived most of my life in Toronto but I was finding it harder to
live there and it was making me feel like I had a smaller life than
I wanted for my family. It felt like we were sitting on a piece of
equity rather than a home, says Benmergui.When I bought the house
in Hamilton the seller invited me over to their new home and we
spent an hour talking about the house and
neighbourhood. It was nice to have that initiation because its
been lost in Toronto.
Once settled,a neighbour came over with a card, contact numbers,
and a gift card to the local food co-op, another neighbour invited
our family to visit their pool.
So what sets Hamilton apart? Physically defined by unique
geographical features like the Niagara Escarpment and Hamilton
Harbour, the municipality is industrious and culturally diverse
with a wide range of museums, libraries, entertainment venues,
recreational facilities, parks and conservations areas. Hamilton is
a city of many communities, built on community spirit.
Hamilton is a city of innovators, from its historic steel and
textile producers to its current prominence in the health,
technology, and engineering sectors where its post-secondary
institutions are leaders in the innovation field. Hamilton is home
to McMaster University, one of Canadas leading research
institutions for health sciences and engineering, hosting McMaster
Innovation Park (MIP), the Xerox Centre for Engineering
Entrepreneurship and Innovation (XCEEi), and the Don Pether
Incubation Centre amongst others. Hamilton is also one of Ontarios
most concentrated centres for healthcare research.
For over 100 years Hamilton has had a vibrant and dynamic
creative industries
cluster that is in the midst of yet another boom period.
Hamilton offers an excellent quality of life, affordable living
options, and easy access to major markets within a 100 km radius
including Toronto and the northern U.S.A., as well as a
well-developed and growing local scene.
An example of this creativity is the Hamilton Bike Share system
or SoBi Hamilton, after the nonprofit local operator.With 110 hub
locations across Hamilton provided by New York based Social
Bicycles the system has 750 bicycles available 24 hours a day.The
program is funded through membership fees, sponsorship, and in-kind
services provided by community partners.
Hamiltons 13 Business Improvement Areas help to improve,
beautify, and maintain public lands and buildings within the BIA,
and promote the area as a business and shopping area.They also
create benefits such as improved atmosphere and ambiance as well as
promotional activities while contributing to the unique lifestyle
and communities within Greater Hamilton.
I love the idea of a mid-sized city. Theres a humanity because
you can afford to be nice, says Benmergui. In terms of where we
came from, I wanted livability, affordability, and civility and
Hamilton offers that. Hamilton is a place that you can still wrap
your arms around.

VALUE IN KNOWING YOUR MARKET Hamilton has always been a priority
for the team at Colliers. Sydney Hamber, Paul Mariutti and John
MacNamara have specialized exclusively in the Hamilton market
for a combined 65 years. With a strong core of individuals focused
on the area, it is no surprise that the team has built up the data
to support their presence in the market place.
Colliers was the first of the large commercial brokerage offices
to track the industrial vacancy rate within the city. It was a
large undertaking to create the foundation in which the team
members worked directly with the City of Hamilton. In addition to

Deloitte strategy shows mixed-use residential and commercial
development with varied 4-Storey and 8-Storey height limits
Agood plan takes time to develop, but the key to its success is
always in its execution. Hamiltons City Council took a great leap
forward this past spring when they approved the West Harbour
Waterfront Re-Development Plan. In a wide-ranging status update on
this transformational project, Council heard about key projects
completed to date, and that interest from the development industry
and financial investment market has been very strong. Many
large-scale developers from Hamilton,Toronto, and the broader GTHA
have shown tremendous interest.
We expect to take the lands to market in 2016, says Chris
Phillips, Coordinator of the Citys Waterfront Re-Development
plans,The investment industry is eager for the opportunity to
invest in this area and are seeking certainty with respect to the
Citys land-use designations, zoning, and most importantly
timing.
As to where the plan currently stands, Council approved $21
Million toward the West Harbour Waterfront Re-Development Plan over
the past 2-years, and has committed an additional $45 Million in
the years 2016-2017 to bring the Citys vision for the West Harbour
to fruition.
The focus for 2015 and 2016 is in the area of the West Harbour
main basin and the lands adjacent to it. Enhancements will include
the replacement of marina docks, reconstruction
of pier walls along Discovery Drive, and the construction of new
docks to provide space for visiting boaters. Major servicing
projects including a sanitary pumping station, watermains, sewers,
and roads for the proposed Pier 8 development will start in 2016
with the remaining servicing of Pier 7 and 8 in 2017 and 2018.
The City is also embarking on an extensive West Harbour Real
Estate and Land Disposition Strategy where City Staff are working
with members from the Deloitte Real Estate team. Completed in two
stages, the strategy will first focus on a strategic asset and
opportunity assessment to determine the highest and best use of the
lands, which have been slated for a mixed-use residential and
commercial development with varied 4-Storey and 8-Storey height
limits.The second phase involves an assessment of market value and
feasibility, and the recommendation of a viable disposition
strategy.This work is currently underway with recommendations
expected by Fall 2015.
Then theres the creation of an investment framework partnership.
Developed by the City of Hamilton with the Hamilton Community
Foundation and their partners (Evergreen CityWorks and Planning
Alliance) the City expects to create a three-dimensional model of
the West Harbour and is preparing a comprehensive shovel-ready
investment document, that will position the West Harbour as an
opportunity for various investment communities, including current
landowners, small builders, and land developers.This marketing and
communication tool will be tailored to various investor segments,
and will contain information that is relevant to making credible
business cases for re-development within the area.
The City has also been promoting these unique urban waterfront
lands to foreign investors; first at MIPIM, a renowned global real
estate conference that takes place each March in France, as well as
at a series of investment tours and conferences that took place in
Hamilton in conjunction with the Toronto 2015 Pan-Am Games.
There remains three major planning exercises that require
approval through a public process to make it development-ready: the
lands require an Urban Design Study to be completed (currently
underway and expected to be complete by Fall 2015), a new Zoning
By-law to be approved, and the development blocks and roads need to
be defined in a Draft Plan of Subdivision, with Council approval
targeted for spring 2016.

An investment portfolios performance is largely influenced by
asset allocation decisions. Having a good
when they reach 60 to 70 years of age. Some adjusting of asset
mix can be ideal to continue to own real estate, while diversifying
into good quality stocks and bonds.
if you have stocks and bonds, but wonder about commercial real

You have a quality mix of stocks and bonds, but you want to
consider additional medium
chris coderre VP and Investment Advisor, Caldwell Securities
Ltd. Oakville, ON
asset mix is strategic, such as combining stocks, bonds and
commercial real estate. In many situations, there are two types of
investors: those that own all real estate and those that own only
stocks and bonds. Both have a good foundation, but at some point,
both could benefit by adding some of the other asset class to their
portfolio mix.
if you own real estate, but have kept away from investing in the
markets
You own land or buildings, and have made a lot of money with
this strategy.At some point there are often reasons why selling
some real estate makes sense. Several examples are estate and
succession planning, cash for retirement, or starting a trust or
endowment fund. Realizing profits on long-term real estate holdings
will allow you to own more liquid investments for greater life
flexibility.
If this situation sounds familiar, Chris Coderre has used his 30
years of experience to help people shape an ideal asset mix for
their current and future needs. Chris has daily meetings with
clients reviewing options for retirement living and lifestyle
planning, charity giving and trust funds.
Coderre has dealt with people who are wealthy with their real
estate holdings, but feel they do not have sufficient cash or
liquidity to do other things in life, especially
to long-term investment strategies, Chris Coderre and Caldwell
Securities Ltd. will work with clients that want to add to their
portfolio by investing in real estate.This can create an ideal mix
of assets and reduce overall portfolio risk and volatility, while
adding a great long-term asset class.The prospects for real estate
in Southern Ontario remain very attractive. In some cases this
means selling some stocks and bonds for downpayments, or using
future free cash flow to create this diversification to include
some real estate.

Huffington Post says:
Hamiltons Collective Pursuits Are Creating Canadas Brooklyn
Comparisons have been made between Hamilton and Toronto,
Brooklyn and Manhattan, Milwaukee and Chicago all hip, thriving
neighborhoods on the outskirts of much more famous, and expensive
cities.
The connection is reinforced in a recent Huffington Post article
that credits Hamiltons recent renaissance to something unique
beyond geography - to a genuine sincere will to work together.There
is this common feeling that collectively, anything is possible The
city is showing us that if you celebrate and create a collective
atmosphere, everyone wins:
local businesses, the culture and food mavens, communities,
tourism and development.
Citing Hamiltons stunning historical architecture - tourists who
racked up 4.5 million visits and spend $359.5 million annually -
the article notes that in 2014, Hamilton welcomed 57 conferences,
76 sporting events and a host of cultural activities like the
Hamilton World Music Festival and Supercrawl as proof that Hamilton
is creating a place where people want to come live and visit.
The proof is in this level of recognition by organizations like
the Huffington Post and The Real Estate Investment Network (REIN)
who ranked Hamilton the second best place to invest in Canada in
2014, and previously Hamilton was ranked first, two years running.
Hamilton surpassed the $1 Billion Building Permit Value for 2010,
2012, 2013, 2014 and will likely reach that figure in 2015; the
Downtown Hamilton Office Vacancy Rate has declined from 19% to 14%,
with new offices under construction and older buildings under
extensive renovation; and employment in the downtown core steadily
rising from 23,925 in 2011 to 24,700 in 2014.
Anecdotally, new office users come to Hamilton for lower,
affordable rates and available office spaces, however tenants are
indicating that quality of life and the ability of their employees
to purchase homes in the Hamilton area is resulting in better
retention of their employees, says Glen Norton, Manager of Urban
Renewal for the City.Hamilton is well known for its quality of
life, efficient transportation, education and health-care systems,
as well as diversified workforce, complimented by the new Foreign
Direct Investment Strategy and Global Hamilton Office.
While success in the core is critical, that core success is also
being seen in the boroughs and Business Improvement Areas (BIAs)
across Hamilton.The Urban Renewal Section of Hamiltons Economic
Development Office
promotes the revitalization and development of properties in its
six Downtowns (Downtown Hamilton,Ancaster Village Core, Binbrook
Community Core, Downtown Dundas, Downtown Stoney Creek, and
Waterdown Village), its 13 Business Improvement Areas, and other
commercial corridors throughout the City.
Downtown is comprised of four Business Improvement Areas (BIA),
they include International Village BIA, Downtown BIA, King West BIA
and a portion of the Main West Esplanade BIA that have been quite
successful with attracting new local businesses and, with the
support of the municipality, are promoting economic development in
their district.
Hamilton can also attribute this steady downtown growth to the
Citys efforts including a focus on programs and incentives to
attract development and businesses to the Downtown a recent
Official Plan and robust Downtown Secondary Plan that address urban
design, intensification and infill policy, among others, in light
of the new Urban Hamilton Official Plan 2013.
