Shovels hit the dirt as Green on Queensbury sales exceed 80%

NORTH VANCOUVER, B.C. Qualex-Landmark™, the developers of GREEN on QUEENSBURY, held a ground breaking ceremony on October 17. The ceremony marked the beginning of construction on the $100 million condominium project in the soon-to-be revitalized Moodyville neighbourhood.

Green on Queensbury is comprised of three four-storey buildings encompassing a full city block targeting “LEED Gold for Homes Multi-Family Midrise” standard.  It is currently over 80 per cent sold out of its 164 one, two, and three bedroom condominiums, garden homes and park-front townhomes. Construction is expected to be completed early 2020.

According to the Real Estate Board of Greater Vancouver (REBGV), residential sales in the Greater Vancouver region increased by 25 per cent in September 2017 compared to the same month last year to 2,821 up from 2,253. In North Vancouver apartment condo sales increased by 10 per cent with 107 sales in September 2017 compared to 97 sales in September 2016.

Mayor Darrell Mussatto, City of North Vancouver, Mohammed Esfahani, president, Qualex-Landmark™, Marco Paolella, president, Marcon Construction and representing the architectural team, Stu Lyon, principal, GBL Architects, and Mike Derksen, PFS Studio landscape architects, were on-site with hard hats and shovels for the ground breaking ceremony.

“This is a milestone moment for Moodyville,” says Mayor Darrell Mussatto. “Green on Queensbury is one of the first new developments that will reshape the community by increasing housing supply and revitalizing Moodyville Park.”

Green on Queensbury is North Vancouver’s first large scale and fully parkside residential community and Qualex-Landmark™ has contributed more than $5 million in development cost charges and community benefits contributions. Approximately $3-million will be allocated by the City to support the complete revitalization of Moodyville Park, significantly enhancing this natural element and lasting community benefit to the Moodyville neighbourhood and Green on Queensbury residents.

Green on Queensbury is the newest addition to the Qualex-Landmark™ group’s portfolio of award-winning communities. Spanning the entire 700 block of East 3rd Street at the foot of Queensbury Avenue, includes apartment condos, garden homes and two-level park-fronting townhomes that will range in size from 517 to 1,546 sq.ft.

“We are very pleased to be back in the North Shore starting construction on Green on Queensbury today,” said Esfahani. “We are proud to be one of the first residential developers to lay down roots in the soon-to-be revitalized Moodyville neighbourhood.”
