Burnaby NewsLeader – Burnaby’s Station Square begins major transformation.

Back in the 1950s, Keith Beedie heard that a large piece of property, home to the Ford Motor Co. and Kelly Douglas, could be had for a price.

“They wanted $1 million for it. I thought, ‘are they crazy?'”

He never would have dreamed back then that one day he’d own a large piece of the property, and that the company he founded, Burnaby-based Beedie Development Group, would have a hand in its transformation.

The company, which until now had mainly been known for its industrial development projects, is now run by his son Ryan Beedie and is half-owner of Station Square shopping centre through its residential development division, Beedie Living.

Along with partner Anthem Properties, the developer is launching sales this weekend of condominium units in the first of five new towers slated for the major redevelopment.
