^ Don't worry, probably a wrong number. If it is important they will call back.

If 1962 calls back can you transfer the call to me, I'd love to sell them some information on the future.

Took these earlier today.

You can see the concrete rafters starting to take shape.

Nice, thanks.

you think I can get approval to build a nice big tower in front of the bayshore on the water? of course there will be an amenity feature, nice big linear park between the bayshore and my tower?

The Bayshore does have a new hotel tower planned - from what I recall it would be atop their current reception area.

^ do you know if there are any plans to develop that parking lot at bayshore (right at entrance to stanley park off denman)? must be the only lot left on the waterfront..

I think that's probably owned by the City. It's the parking lot for the marina.

thanks! it would be great if the city entered into a partnership with a developer to build an u/g parking lot for the marina in exchange for extra density and develop the site. that's prime real estate.

on another note, found this cool shot on flickr

agreed that site is CHOICE...should be filled with cafe's and shops lining the seawall and condos/hotel above.....

I think its part of stanley park technically....so i can see the nimby's going ape shit at the thought of "Park Land" being developed
