What do you think about this development?

There will be big retail stores opening there, which will attract small business to move in, so hopefully it will not become another International Village. I guess it is more for people who enjoy downtown lifestyle but not willing to pay high price to get a property in downtown.

但係唔明佢點解有咁多rental units...唔係歧視 renters....不過感覺上成座都係私人單位會好少少

Actually, I live fairly close to the Marine Station (3 blocks away). I don't hear the airplane nor traffic w/ window open. In fact, I can only recall I hear train passing by in a quiet night.
However, I don't open window at night for safety reason and also, my neighbour liked to mow lawn fairly EARLY (like 7am) on weekend...

With this Marine Gateway....traffic doesn't really concern me....but safety ....

The project would include 390 condominiums and 187 rental units. It would also feature a movie theatre, daycare, office tower and huge retail space.

I don't mind shopping and going to the theatre there with easy access of Canada Line.
BUT I don't want to live there right along the busy section of Marine Dr.
I used to live off Marine Dr. close to boundary and I could still hear traffic. So right on Marine will be more noisy (unless you don't want to open your windows even in the summer)

it will be great if they can do it right btu you know of course they rarely do...but for the traffice..i dont think it will be tht much worse since the transit is so convenient to most places

godavid

is it a good area to live ?

Better get ready for all these 屏风 apartments like Hong Kong that blocks everything and makes the traffic jam even worse on marine drive and cambie st.
