Ubyssey Story on the Westbrook Community Centre
The next stage in the growing development of South Campus is a new 30,000-square-foot community centre.
The new centre is slated to have a gym, general meeting and
multipurpose rooms along with a dance studio and café space.
Construction of the centre is set to start this winter.
Charles Menzies, a campus resident since 1996, said that current
community facilities on campus are limited and cramped. The Wesbrook
area is expected to grow to 6,250 households over the next 15 years.
“It’s the Manhattanizing of this campus. They have nine high-rise
buildings planned, and several that are already here.… They’re basically
somewhere around 40 per cent increase on campus population, and that’s
gonna put a big strain on the campus population, insofar as space,” said
Menzies.
