North Shore Kia Moves for New Condos
It was a game of musical developments at City of North Vancouver council Monday night as council members voted to approve a new home for North Shore Kia dealership and a condo building to go in its place.
The joint bid between the Dick Irwin Group, which owns North Shore Kia, and Darwin Properties will see the dealership moved to a 43,500-square-foot home at 843-855 West First St., just above the Northshore Auto Mall.
The land is currently home to an auto shop and overflow parking for auto dealerships. Making the move would allow the company to better serve clients as well as hire more staff, the owners said in their pitch to council.
Once the Korean autos are moved out, the building at 725 Marine Dr. will be demolished for a five-storey, 92-unit mixed-used building with commercial space on the ground floor.
