Anthem Properties Group Ltd. has acquired the former gas station site at 1698 West Georgia Street from Chevron Canada. It is the second to last gas station in downtown Vancouver.
The 16,369 square foot site falls within the City of Vancouver’s West End Community Plan for the Georgia corridor and qualifies for rezoning to higher density.
“The Anthem team, its consultants and its financial partners are enthusiastically looking forward to creating a stunning residential project on this high profile site in conjunction with the planning department of the City of Vancouver,” said Eric Carlson, CEO of Anthem.
Anthem plans to submit a rezoning proposal to the city, in line with existing local policy and compatible with the community, and looks forward to sharing a preliminary concept with the neighbourhood in the near future.
The Anthem group own, co-own and manage 6.2 million square feet of retail, industrial, residential rental and office space across Western North America. Anthem Properties recently underwent a rebranding to better reflect its size and scope. Anthem Properties is now Anthem.
Sister companies, which Anthem acquired in 2014, have also rebranded. Land development company United Communities in Alberta and GBD Communities in Sacramento and homebuilder Premier United Communities in Sacramento are now Anthem United. Anthem Properties Group Ltd. is a real estate development, investment and management company that strives, solves and evolves to build better spaces and stronger communities.
