Get closer to the heart of Tsawwassen
With Tsawwassen Town Centre and the new Community Hub at your doorstep, there’s less need to leave the community you love.
A modern plan for a town with history
The world has changed since the original Town Centre Mall opened in 1971, but the need for quality shops and services is stronger than ever. With leading urban design, planning principles, and consideration of community input, we’re designing a future with convenience and character at the heart of the community.
A new Community Hub
The Community Hub will incorporate a new, state-of-art Public Library for Tsawwassen, with approximately 15,000-17,000 square feet of space. The role of a library is changing, from a place to loan books and use a computer, to a full-fledged community learning, gathering and creativity centre. The Public Library is intended to be a landmark building for the community, utilizing mass timber building practices to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere.
The library will spill out onto the major plaza to the west, a new gathering spot for the community. This area will be framed by retail uses and patio spaces.
A new Mobility Hub is intended to encourage alternative transportation options to reduce car dependency by providing secure bicycle parking. The mobility hub would include a car share centre and secure 24-hour bicycle storage, within close proximity of transit stops.
New Retail and High Street
High Street will run north-south, just west of the public plaza, acting as the new Main Street for Tsawwassen. The north section of High Street will be pedestrian only, while the southern portion will be pedestrian-priority, with vehicle access permitted. The retail program is intended to provide most day-to-day necessities within walking distance. A new Thrifty Foods grocery store is proposed near the intersection of High Street and 12 Avenue.
High Street is envisioned to contain small, individual storefronts for visual interest with restaurants positioned on the north side of the Library Plaza.
This retail will create jobs for local residents by adding economic activity. Existing tenants will be relocated to the new project wherever possible.
Housing options to meet Tsawwassen’s needs
Care and consideration are being taken to develop a ‘Made in Tsawwassen’ village architectural character. We’re ensuring the project builds upon the valued aspects of Tsawwassen for current residents, and also offers new and affordable housing options for new residents, homeowners, and existing residents downsizing. A variety of housing types—wood frame apartment buildings in juxtaposition with concrete residential towers—are offered as both ownership, rental, and below-market rental options.
