Here is a construction update on the second phase of Appia’s Solo District project in the Brentwood Area of Burnaby.

The first phase of the project included a tower branded ‘Stratus’, a 367-unit 45-storey tower which has just recently completed and which is substantially sold out. Burnaby’s first Whole Foods is an anchor of the retail component of the project.

The second phase of the project is ‘Altus’, a 48-storey tower at the corner of Lougheed and Willingdon that includes 284 condo units above 250,000 SF of office space on 12 floors. Pre-sales launched in 2013 and this phase of the project is also nearing sell-out.
