The Pacific Gate should be just about done based on this photo from April.  That's Bosa's Electra to the left.  Nice diversity amongst the towers by the same developer.

Both of those are generic, bleak and a bit depressing.

I'll be happy to see activity again down on Dockside. I do hope the overall effect will work and be something we all like.


Don't be so sure.:cool:

Today's T-C has an article about Dockside Green and the bid received- note that Bosa Properties is not mentioned.  See http://www.timescolo...ners-1.22328163

It's Bosa Developments that put in the winning bid, not Properties (same family but different companies).

CushWake handled the deal. I'm surprised they're still calling this no more than a "rumour," despite the actual bidders coming forward and confirming that they put forward bids. Shearing denied there were even bids when I spoke to him. I don't know what's going on, but this veil of mystery is intriguing.

A renaming to simply "Dockside"?  Construction could start next Summer, nice!    :)

Good move. The “green” is an artifact of cool marketing buzzwords from the early 00’s.

I like the new name but I wish they had come up with a new motto, too.*

 

*Good-natured badinage. Take it easy.

September 1st, 2017:

Dockside Green’s new way of doing business appears to have stirred the rumour mill regarding the development’s future.

 

Rumours have been circulating the massive development site is being sold by owner Vancity Credit Union, but Dockside president Norman Shearing says it’s nothing more than following through with the master development plan it had approved by the City of Victoria this year.

 

Shearing noted the plan dictates Dockside Green will act as a “neighbourhood developer” that will partner through land sales and partnerships with third-party builders to bring the neighbourhood to life.

 

“Dockside Green recently issued a request for builders to submit proposals to develop two residential properties along Tyee Road,” he said. “We did this following the approval by Victoria of a new master development agreement for the project.”

 

Shearing said there was “significant interest” in the request.

 

“Several developers submitted bids, including some that were interested in more than just the two properties,” he said. “We are currently exploring options, but due to confidentiality, we are not able to comment on any offers we have received.

 

“We can, however, confirm that no deal has been reached at this time as part of these discussions.”

 

Shearing said the development has not been for sale. Vancity did not respond to requests for comment.

 

“It is unfortunate there are rumours regarding Dockside as they create stress and uncertainty for all concerned,” said Shearing.

And from August 21:

 

Under condition of anonymity several sources told Citified that current owner VanCity Credit Union recently sought purchase bids from large development firms with the wherewithal to take over the entire project.

Although Shearing denies Dockside Green is or was for sale, sources maintain submitted bids reached into the tens of millions of dollars. - http://victoria.citi...uction-in-2018/

Norman Shearing lied.  

 

It would have been so much easier and genuine for him to just say "of course we'd never turn away offers, we will look at them, but as far as the site being sold, we keep any of that information internal here".

"The 49-unit affordable-housing project at 370 Harbour Ave. is called Madrona. Construction started in the summer of 2016 and was completed this week"

~ http://www.timescolo...reen-1.23075129

 

ChekNews reported that Madrona is still looking for residents.  Makes one wonder why there isn't an established waiting list for these types of projects
