I notice the lot at Larch and 41st which was supposed be elm41 has a "court ordered sale" billboard. The developer is listed as iFortune, are they connected to one of the larger developers like Vivagrand?

Seems like it's just a tiny developer but that relied on foreign investors.

The report can't be accessed but there was a new case five days ago against IFORTUNE WEST 59 for taxes I think.

Not such a great investment apparently!

Yet another former gas station site destined to remain empty.

Here's an interesting one.

5 storey rental building with retail at grade. Aiming for a potential pilot project for point block access apartment building. Hope it happens.

Very interesting. Thanks for posting. Good to see it's AIRstudio and will be interesting to see what they propose.

Google aerial view shows they were already doing preconstruction with shoring recently.

It's crazy to think that the industrial area of Mount Pleasant will be the best connected transit area of the entire Metro Vancouver area. It's the only neighborhood that will be served by all skytrain lines.

I live in OV and the furthest line from me is the Canada Line @ OV Station.
