With some refinement since 2001, the development now includes:

• A total of 1.25 million sq ft of commercial, public amenity and residential development;
• Extensive public waterfront access with a performance stage;
• A major, 700 ft public dock for visiting vessels (Burrard Drydock Pier);
• A floating dock for smaller visiting vessels (St. Roch Dock);
• An industrial heritage precinct with buildings and artefacts that reflect the character of the historic shipyard. This area, now known as The Shipyards, opened to the public in October 2010. In 2006, the previous shipyard was granted National Historic Status;
• 108 room Pinnacle Hotel with conference space and public access to pool;
• Commercial uses with shops, restaurants, services and employment;
• 1,000 apartment and live-work units;
• 50 surplus underground parking stalls for general public use;
• Soil contaminant remediation;
• Infrastructure improvements including Esplanade realignment, utility undergrounding, new road construction, District Energy System, and more.

Some refinement...interesting choice of words...

1.  Pricing is Paramount. Base you listing price on what has sold in the Pier in the past 60-90 days that is comparable to your condo (example: if you own a 952 square foot two bedroom price your condo accordingly to recently sold 952 square foot 2 bedroom condos). A lot of people bought in the Pier expecting to make 20, 50 or even $100,000, unfortunately this is not happening.

2.  Marketing Patters. Great photos, online video, a huge web presence and an International reach...you don't have to settle for less.

Without the Provincial financial contribution to the tri-government partnership, the National Maritime Centre will not move forward as originally envisioned. Funding for the project was structured as a 3-way partnership of local, provincial and federal government resources as well as private sector funding. The Federal government had made an unofficial partial commitment to the initiative subject to a matching commitment from the Province.

The City will spend the next few weeks reviewing options and determining next steps.
