There's some new life coming for Rutland's uptown business core, with city council approval of a new 8-storey building at the corner of Highway-33 and Rutland Road.

City councilor Brian Given thinks the new building will provide a spark for more development in a key area of Rutland. The building will feature commercial space on its first four floors, with apartments on the upper floors.

The building, to be called the 'Four Way Centre', will sit on property once occupied by the Four Way food market, before it was torn down a number of years ago.
