City OKs Marine Drive Development

City OKs Marine Drive development.

A proposed five-storey development on Marine Drive came one step closer to construction after receiving strong support at a City of North Vancouver council meeting Monday.

Despite questions about the mixed-use building’s density and its possible impact on a neighbouring creek, the project passed second and third readings, leaving the development one vote from adoption.

The property, located at 972 Marine Drive next to Heywood Park at Hamilton Avenue, would include 67 residential strata units above 4,200 square feet of commercial space.
