Concord Pacific visions mixed development on site
Molson-brewery

Concord Pacific, one of British Columbia’s largest new-home developers, said it plans to “create a…sustainable mixed-use addition to Vancouver,” on Molson Coors brewery site it bought for $185 million. Colliers International brokered the sale that closed March 31.

“Concord's long-term vision is to attract knowledge-based local and global tech companies to this site,” according to a company statement. Industrial zoning would have to be changed to match this vision. “The property is zoned industrial and shown in the regional context statement as industrial, any change to that would require a regional amendment by Metro Vancouver,” according to a City of Vancouver statement. “The City’s policies for these lands are set, and staff are not contemplating any changes to current policies.”
