Surrey City Centre is a 10 acre, 1.8 million sq ft, Master Planned Urban Mixed Use Community located in the heart of downtown Surrey. Surrey City Centre is the new bustling commercial core in Metro Vancouver. Flanked by major transportation infrastructure such as the SkyTrain and King George Boulevard, the site is well positioned near regional amenities such as an SFU University Campus, North Surrey Recreation Centre, Surrey City Hall, Surrey’s newest and largest Public Library and the Central City Shopping Centre. Upon completion, a total of 8 new residential apartment buildings will rise above 180,000 sq ft of newly created restaurants, offices and retail space.

CIVITAS created the urban design Concept Plan for this Transit-Oriented Design (TOD) project, a 5-minute walk from a major Skytrain station. It contains a ne grain of integrated streets, a legible grid structure, small blocks that maximize street front access and provide active frontages. The intersection density allows for multiple pedestrian paths, and the Green Lane allows access for high density residential along King George Blvd. Key features of the plan include:

• Height/density transect from King George to Whalley Blvd

• Diversity of built form; towers, mid rise, townhouses

• Taller towers & 6 storey street-wall, reinforcing King George Blvd character

• Streetwall reinforcing site

• Towers placed to maximize solar access to public spaces

• A 400m long outdoor High Street provides a strong retail flow anchored at both ends

Hopefully this breaks ground this summer. It's going to be busy south of 104th for the next few years.

I just realized that there's a pretty decent elevation change from the south end of Georgetown near 102 Ave and the north side, at the current Canadian Tire.

Will they have to readjust the elevation for the towers on that CT site, or will they keep Whalley Blvd. as an elevated road?

[Nites]

Anybody have the project number for this development? Never mind found it.

That render is so dumb. What is with all the trees even on top of the building. Seriously, I can see a manager yelling at the graphic artist "MORE TREES PEOPLE WANT MORE TREES!!!!!"

Ugh. This is in the HEART of Surrey, render should be urban and look urban, not like it is in the middle of Green Timbers Park. Even the shadows are all wrong. Terrible.

*sigh* marketers.

Approx 5 minute walk to surrey central station and about 8-10 min to KGB station

[SpongeG]

i know that but this render cannot be for this project as it shows skytrain practically running through this development. Its not possibly this open and visible at all. there is a solid block of crap between king george and where the skytrain is.

[Flynn86]

I'm guessing they will have to tear down the Canadian Tire and Save On Foods to build this project?

[EhJay]

I believe this part of the project is closer to where A&W is. A future phase will be wear the saveon / canadian tire currently sit

[officedweller]

The guess is that it'll be phased so that the Save-on-Foods can more into the large 2nd floor retail space.

[MovieBuff]

I wonder if Save on Foods will move to King George Hub when completed?

Planning report is released

[EhJay]

I guess the anticipated start date didn't happen.
