LESSONS LEARNED

  • City of Vancouver Zoning Policies
  • currently the DTES is not located in a Light Industrial / Industrial area
  • We need Policy changes to encourage business to come and build their businesses locally
  • LEED – Regional Material Credit
  • Due to the nature of the construction of this project (Curtain Wall, Steel, Large Mechanical units, etc.)

many of the materials are not available locally, nor within the 500km designation as required by LEED.

  • Construction type is an anomaly for Vancouver. Where majority of our development is Condo High rise

(heavy concrete, minimal finishes & fixtures) our project is very diverse in its use and its construction.

  • Competitive Bid process (our project) vs Self Preformed Work (typical Vancouver condo)

The method of our project does not offer us as much flexibility as a Developer self-preforming their work (procurement, construction labour, interior design, etc.)
