Manitoba’s First Large Scale District Geothermal System

Imagine a neighbourhood where the heat under your feet keeps you warm. 🌎

Southwood Circle — the new mixed-use community rising next to the U of M — is set to become home to Manitoba's first large-scale district geothermal system, tapping the earth itself to heat and cool up to 1,000 homes with a fraction of the carbon footprint. No furnace roulette, no watching your bill climb every January.😁

And it's not just about what's underground. Above it, this community is being built dense and walkable🚶‍♀️ — condos, apartments and townhomes woven together with shops, transit and green space just steps from your door — all while preserving the site's old-growth tree🌳 canopy instead of clear-cutting for construction. Mature trees, cleaner energy, and a real neighbourhood you can walk through: that's the kind of development Winnipeg doesn't see very often.🤷‍♀️

This is what the future of Winnipeg living looks like. Keep an eye on this one. 👀
