Pretty sure the “75,000 square feet of live/work space for artists and other creative industries” is actually a subsection of the 103 000 sq ft Industrial, but whatever. Vancouver added 3.2 MILLION sq feet in 2014-2015 alone. https://www.avisonyoung.com/fileDown...Spring2015.pdf
You mean the River Rock and Marine Gateway DIRECTLY connected to Skytrain (as in physically connected)... Really? Also, again with the rail spur?
Yes, I know Port Moody doesn’t want the industrial to stay but neither does it want density anyways. Just money grabs. |
If it wasn't a fire, it would've been something else, just like the Burrard Molson. We can save the small-scale industries, but many of the factories and foundries and mills are eventually going to leave or be pushed out.
Most likely, yes - what I'm saying is that two blocks =/= useless. It's enough for something Port Moody's size, and the town can always grow out as demand requires it to.
Yes with the rail spur. Unless Pacific Coast has been sharing all this time?
I was not aware that high density had to be right beside a SkyTrain (I trust that I don't need to drag any redevelopment into that particular point?), nor that Marine Gateway is "connected" to the station. Either the 800m SkyTrain catchment radius applies, or it does not.
The North Shore munis and Ioco are making the best of a bad situation, but Port Moody is in it for the money? ... I don't follow.
