Interview with Mark Penner of Green Seed Development

I had the pleasure of meeting Mark Penner of Green Seed Development today on the site of YouCube condos, one of his many condo projects in the city.
Mark is also behind the Bloc10 condos on the corner of Grant & Niagara and involved in the BGBX condos situated at the corner of Wall St. & St-Matthew's. He's working closely with the architectural firm 5468796 on all these projects and looking at other sites in the city to develop.
Throughout our conversation, Mark talked openly about these architecturally unique developments with passion and vigor. Considering the fact that, in a place where anything similar is considered "out of the norm" and plainly frowned on by the city planners and other government officials, this man and the architects working with him had to regularly fight to get permits and approvals required (he actually had to call the mayor himself to get things moving), one has to wonder why the desire to continue still inhabit him. Let's all hope for the good of this city that he keeps pushing the envelop.
Check out the video below. Feel free to contact me via email, phone, Facebook, Twitter and Skype if you have any questions about this or other condo developments in the city or simply interested in buying or selling.
