Richmond Review – Intracorp brings River Park Place to Richmond.

Located in the heart of Richmond’s Oval Village neighbourhood, River Park Place will be part of a master-planned community that is pedestrian-friendly and just minutes away from everything that Richmond has to offer. Whether it’s a walk on the dyke that winds all the way to Steveston or some evening entertainment at the River Rock Casino, nothing is out of reach.

The Richmond Oval Village is expected to become a new lifestyle hub, with restaurants, shops and leisure activities, and Intracorp is getting in at the start of it. A new T&T Supermarket, scheduled to open in late 2013, will add to the convenience. Grocery shopping will literally be walking distance away from your home at River Park Place.

The first phase of River Park Place is expected to go on sale in spring 2013, and will feature a 15-storey tower with one-, two- and three-bedroom homes. The floorplans are efficient and modern, with huge windows to take in your river and mountain views and gorgeous interior finishings.
