This Fall, sales will begin for Anthem Properties newest project, Local in central Lonsdale. 20 stories of high end finishing boasting large patios, amazing views, and a 1 acre Green Roof. Get more information here: http://www.localonlonsdale.com/

Sales are underway for Onni's newest project, The Drive, one of the first new developments along the Marine Dr corridor from Lions Gate Bridge to Lonsdale where city planners are strategically re-zoning for a Kitsilano feel with vibrant storefronts and a denser, more livable neighborhood. Touchstone was the first and now The Drive, http://www.northvanapartments.com/TheDrive.ubr and The District Crossing by Qualex-Landmark, http://www.districtcrossing.com/, are storming ahead and quickly transforming the feel and look of the Marine Drive corridor.

The Pier by Pinnacle is also set to develop 3 New High End Waterfront Buildings. The Safeway at 13th and Lonsdale has been rezoned for 2 new high rises. Sales have also began for Vicinity near Deep Cove by Brody Development, the newest, lease-hold property available on The North Shore.

Also look out for new townhomes and duplexes being developed along The Lonsdale Corridor.

There has also been a lot of high end apartment buildings completing in North Vancouver in the past few years: The Pier, Mira on The Park, Alina, and Vista Place.

All in all the future looks very bright for North Vancouver. With a serious lack of affordable new product in West Vancouver (The Evelyn, Park Marine, Dundarave Village Point, Edgewater, The Properties, ect all sell for well over $1000/sq ft) anyone looking to live on the Northshore, downsizers, young families, first time home buyers, ect, will have a lot of really nice product to choose from, and anyone living here currently, will enjoy an overall increase in their quality of life with new shops, restaurants, and neighbors.
