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.

On the boards: an exciting new mixed-use commercial development in the South Granville neighbourhood.

South Granville Commercial Mixed-Use
Imagined as a new urban typology, this mixed-use commercial development in the South Granville neighbourhood combines retail, industrial and office uses to create a new form of urban infill. As one of the first projects to be undertaken as part of the City of Vancouver’s Broadway plan, this development will house commercial uses at ground level while providing much needed spaces for work above. Stepped massing along a street frontage provides generous roof gardens and patios that take advantage of spectacular City and mountain views. The building’s massing is configured to create a covered ground level plaza on the street that connects to the main entry lobby on 5th Avenue via shopping promenade, articulating and energizing the adjacent street edges

Is this the BMW Store, Mini-Vancouver and Rolls rolled into one? I wonder if it will include the Service Dept or if that will remain across the street.

If you're talking the old Starbucks location, it's actually West 7th.

West 6th is a bunch of galleries, a hair salon/beauty spa, and antique stores.

I always find it a bit creepy when you have dentist office at street level and you can stare right into the terror in the patient's eyes!
