This project for the Self Storage Depot is a significant regional resource with nearly 500,000 sf in both phases of development. The high density of use resulting from a 5 storeys plus sub-grade utilization deploys an innovative circulation system for the loading areas which are internal along a one way directional route. This internal space is a two storey high utility area allowing for large vehicles and enclosing all of the loading bays internally, protected from the weather and away from the city streetscapes. This also maximizes the on-grade storage unit count to increase the value of the leasable space. Designed with insulated precast panels, curtainwall, brick veneer towers and conventional steel structure. To be constructed via a Construction Management process.

This Self Storage Depot project is a ground breaking development with perhaps the highest density of any new built self-storage project in Canada. Currently planned to be 6 storeys tall in two phases developed vertically, this storage tower concentrates the use on the main level and allows an additional storage capacity below grade. The principal materials are curtainwall, spandrel glass, insulated precast paneling and exposed concrete. Various features on the principal eleva!ons contribute to the ‘cultural’ requirements at the City of North Vancouver. To be delivered via a Construction Management process.
