Liena is sending many VIP email for their pre-sales now, that will be a nice building in the area. It is not "cheap" too.

Bought one of the last 1 bedroom units in the building, very excited for King George's transformation in the coming years. Prime area, can't go wrong with the current pricing.

With Magil spearheading construction with experience from Hotel Vancouver etc., going to be very exciting to watch it go up.

Congrats.

I just hope bigger hotels like 4 Seasons, Shangri-La, Fairmont, or more can come to this new Surrey downtown. So far, the new hotels here are "small" and not very high class. The hotel at the 3CP has such a small lobby and cafe..... It does not look good for a very important new financial downtown. If I were the designer, I think the new Surrey downtown should be closer to the river. Surrey gov should create the 2nd Water Front, Gas Town or Canada Place there. Tourism is also important to build a new downtown quickly. They should think "BIG", very BIG...

From my understanding the Civic is a boutique hotel, and they purposely built it on a slightly smaller scale. Regardless, the lobby is still airy and elegant. Regarding big name hotels like Four Seasons, Fairmont or Shanghai-la, you’d be hard pressed to find hotels of that level anywhere outside the downtown core. Even in Richmond you only have a Fairmont on account of the airport. No suburb or edge city in Canada—to my knowledge at least—has multiple high-end Hotels. The Marriott Autograph in Surrey City Centre is an anomaly.

I agree, size doesn't always matter.

If Surrey gov can create some great tourist attractions here, tourism can bring the big hotel and big establishment. I hope Surrey gov put some attention to this area.

Hotels are also driven by nearby offices.
(i.e. Hilton Metrotown or the one at the Sovereign serve Burnaby's business parks down Willingdon)

Central City Mall is slated to be repurposed as high rises down the road. Doubt they'll be putting in a movie theatre there.

if it's sold out or close to, there really isn't a point for the presentation centre anymore I guess

Looks like the sales centre will open very soon. I'd say in about 2 weeks.

EhJay · #**236** Posted **Sep 22, 2018, 2:19 PM**

I thought that Avani said that it sold out for some reason.

e-clam9 · #**237** Posted **Oct 20, 2018, 8:23 PM**

This makes me wonder why they waste these money if they already sold every or most units ??? Is that a government law or rules to have a presentation center for every new pre sales ? Or they want to show the committed buyers what they "may" get ??
