Wesbild has support of the Waterfront proposal from members of the community, including both large and small local businesses, who are keen to keep industry and jobs on the North Shore.
Our Waterfront development will support the much needed improvements to Lions Gate Marina, benefiting the recreational and commercial boating community and the current businesses that call Waterfront home. Hear more from local businesses that depend on Lions Gate Marina:
“North Vancouver simply needs more industrial inventory to retain businesses on the North Shore and, more importantly, to allow existing business on the North Shore to grow and prevent them leaving the North Shore in order to find suitable premises for their businesses.”
– Terry Thies, Principal, Avison Young
“As a marine-based business, the continued success of our organization depends on access to industrial zoned land on the waterfront. This is exactly what Wesbild is proposing to deliver”
– Tony Crane, Manager, Britmar Marine Ltd.
“Wesbild’s proposal to develop the under utilized property on McKeen Avenue, while maintaining the existing EZ-I industrial zoning, will promote job creation and support the preservation and continued vitality of diverse industrial businesses…”
– Glenn Dempster, Project Manager, Fibreco
“Wesbild’s site on the Waterfront would be an ideal location for us to expand our business, within our community, and without contributing to the vehicle congestion, should we have to secure space off the North Shore.”
– John Stibbard, VP of Operations, Capilano Group
