Vince Le Donne wants to build homes in Leaside. And building them he is. The young father of two lives on Leacrest Road with his wife and kids while he builds a new home for his family on Airdrie Road near Hanna Rd. Even here, Vince is making friends with neighbors and potential customers who may some day need his services. “It’s so important for me to learn about the community and meet people here,” Vince says of his adopted community. With his company, Ivy Glen Homes, building two more homes on Sutherland Drive, Vince acknowledges that his preferred business is to contract with residents. They may wish to bump up or enlarge a present Leaside home, or perhaps replace it altogether. But like all businessmen, Vince is ready to do the job that needs doing. One of his Sutherland projects, 472, is being built for a client, but over at 302, he will sell the finished product himself. There’s no other place like Leaside for this booming activity, and Vince knows just what a good place he has picked. Vince Le Donne is a home-grown builder, learning his trade at Humber College and then earning a degree is architectural technology at Ryerson. He spent five years working for another Leaside building firm making drawings of projects in the office, before striking out on his own a couple of years ago. All of this plus the blessing and responsibility of a 4-year daughter and a one year old son. It keeps Vince Le Donne busy at home and on the job site.
