River District | Vancouver | Mixed-Use
Summary | A waterfront-inspired, mixed-use masterplanned community in Vancouver’s River District, integrating residential, retail, and parkland spaces to foster vibrant urban living.
River District, located in Vancouver’s vibrant River District, is a mixed-use masterplanned community integrating residential, retail, and parkland spaces. Just 5 km from the Vancouver CBD, it offers 1–3 bedroom condos and townhomes in its 2026 release, Ardea. The project transforms a former industrial waterfront along the Fraser River into a cultural and lifestyle hub, integrating dining, shopping, and 25 acres of parklands within the development.
Urban integration - Located 5 km from Vancouver CBD, River District connects residents to the city’s hubs through public transit (Marine Drive/Boundary Road buses to SkyTrain, 15-minute ride) and walkability, fostering a connected urban lifestyle. Proximity to Town Centre shops and dining enhances its vibrant, community-oriented character.
Sustainability - River District incorporates eco-conscious design and infrastructure, 25 acres of parklands (Kinross Park, riverfront trails), and promotes walkability, reducing environmental impact. Features include energy-efficient appliances and lush landscaping, supporting Vancouver’s sustainable urban growth.
Architectural Quality - River District features a contemporary design with stacked bricks, dark exterior, and metal accents, inspired by the area’s lumber history at the former Canadian White Pine Sawmill. The project balances bold aesthetics with community-focused spaces like Stil Haus (spa, gym, hot tub), complemented by lush greenery throughout.
Long-Term Design Value - River District ensures Long-Term Value through Urban Integration, Community Engagement, and Eco-Conscious design. Its sustainable, community-focused approach meets Vancouver’s demand for vibrant, waterfront urban spaces, delivering sustained impact and adaptability for future residents.
Strategic Alignment - River District reflects PD’s focus on design-driven urban projects, aligning with Vancouver’s market trends for mixed-use, waterfront communities. Its pre-sales flexibility (completion 2026) ensures adaptability, capitalizing on the mixed-use design to deliver a sustainable, community-focused urban experience.
Why It’s Curated?
River District is curated for its exemplary mixed-use design, reimagining Vancouver’s River District as a vibrant waterfront community hub. Located along the Fraser River, it unites 1–3 bed condos and townhomes with retail and expansive parklands, advancing sustainable urban living. With vibrant amenities and proximity to Kinross Park and Town Centre dining, River District appeals to middle-income buyers seeking modern, cohesive urban living.
Placemaking Impact
