Richmond School District Steveston Secondary for $41 Million
The site of the former Steveston secondary in Richmond sold to Polygon Homes for $41,125,000.
“The board is enthusiastic about what this means for our district,” said Donna Sargent, board chair at Richmond School District No. 38. “The sale of these lands provides us with funding that can be used for other capital projects and will ensure the legacy of Steveston will remain within the Richmond community.”
The 13-acre site will be split into eight acres sold to Polygon and five acres reserved for a park. There are no conditions on the sale and any rezoning will be done with the city.
The secondary school closed in June, 2007 and was merged with the nearby London secondary to become Steveston London secondary in September, 2007.
