APRIL 2026 the name is fitting. A distinctive external walkway connects its two structures, and the project has drawn attention well beyond its sixteen units. The project also received a 2025 Award of Merit at the Hamilton Urban Design and Architecture Awards. That acknowledgement reinforced what Brendan has believed from the outset – which is that design-forward rental development, even at a small scale, can stand apart. Moving forward, Woven Quarter is using the lessons learned on The Bridge to help shape their next project – which is a 45-unit condo on a site located just down the street. According to Brendan, that project will be bigger but “a little less complicated,” and “more straightforward in terms of the build.” Beyond that, Brendan says, the company is taking a “slow, measured approach” to growth. “We’re not trying to run too quick,” he says. “We’re focusing on what we have in front of us making sure that we execute.” “We don’t want to be the biggest builders out there. We just want to do projects that we believe in and we want to do them well so we can build a good reputation.” The company’s reputation is important, Brendan says, because he and his partner are both committed to working within this market for a long time to come. “We’re both passionate about residential development, and we want to be doing this for the next 25-to-30 years,” Brendan concludes. “This isn’t about getting in and making a little bit money and then retiring. We want to set this up so that we’re able to work on projects for the foreseeable future.”
