Sears Canada is proposing a multi-phased, mixed-use development on their Metrotown property, located on the South side of Kingsway at Nelson Avenue, next to Metropolis, consisting of a new “flagship” department store, and high-rise residential and commercial towers above commercial-retail podiums.
The 8.9 acre site is highly integrated with the adjacent Metropolis at Metrotown shopping centre, but is situated on a separate legal parcel under ownership (Sears Canada) that is different from the Metropolis at Metrotown site (Ivanhoe Cambridge).

The Edgemont Senior Living project in North Vancouver will go to council for first reading next week. The proposal is for a 125-unit, 3-storey building on a site that currently consists of six single family lots. The units will be primarily independent living, with some assisted living units. The developer is proposing to pay a CAC of $500,000, which is estimated to be 50% of the increase in land value through rezoning. More information can be found here.
