More New Developments in North Vancouver Real Estate!

A few weeks ago I blogged about the North Vancouver Building Boom, today I am excited to announce a few more exciting new Developments in the City and the District of North Vancouver! Two Boutique high end residences with an emphasis on space and luxury and a high rise with anchor commercial tenants. Villa St Georges is the revitalization to the site of a tragic apartment fire two years ago, 700 is a transformation of a commerical block into a mix-use luxury residential/ vibrant retail hub, and 13th and Lonsdale is the site of the old Shell station.




1) 700 - 700 Marine Drive, North Vancouver


700 is transforming the corner of Marine Drive, Bewicke, and 3rd. The true gateway to the revitalized Marine Drive.


This intelligent, human-scale building includes 26 generous air conditioned concrete homes, inspiring office spaces, and shops, services, and landscaped spaces at street level. 700 boasts easier access to both bridges, Upper and Lower Lonsdale, the Upper Levels Highway, and the trails and rivers of the coastal mountains. Meanwhile, everything you need for smarter living is just downstairs. This is a whole new design for urban life – and everything you love about North Van.




2) Villa St Georges - 1033 St Georges Ave, North Vancouver 


Eight high end 2 bedroom, 2 full bath penthouse units in brand new Villa St. George. These homes will be spacious 1,150+ sq ft units with high end finishings, great outdoor deckspace and spectacular mountain and some city views. Prime central location neart all amenities and the vibrant Lonsdale corridor. Ready for occupancy Spring 2011.


With even more projects in the pipeline, look forward further evolution of the Lonsdale corridor skyline and watch for significant commercial and residential upgrades to the Marine Drive corridor from Capilano Road to Lonsdale.

3) 13th and Lonsdale - North Vancouver


The intent of the proposed development is to create a mixed-use development featuring a new Lonsdale branch and head office for North Shore Credit Union. The proposed floor area for the North Shore Credit Union facility is approximately 60,000 square feet. Through the creation of permanent employment opportunities on site and the provision of multi-family housing in proximity to jobs and services, the proposed development will contribute to a vibrant, diverse and highly livable community. The proposed maximum height for the building is 120 feet, consistent with the height limit specified in the OCP for the Central Lonsdale corridor.
