2018 Commercial Real Estate Awards of Excellence

Message from the President

NAIOP

Vancouver is extremely pleased to partner with Business in Vancouver to co-host the Commercial Real Estate Awards of Excellence Gala on Thursday, May 17, 2018, at the Fairmont Waterfront Hotel. The event will recognize excellence in commercial real estate within the Metro Vancouver area for the years 2016 and 2017. This is the fourth such recognition gala in which we have partnered with Business in Vancouver. The last one was held in May 2016. The awards recognize the full range of disciplines involved in creating successful real estate solutions, while highlighting the leadership role played by property owners, developers and professional advisers.

We were delighted with the number and quality of submissions we received. I would like to acknowledge the vital role NAIOP Vancouver plays in advocating for our members and for the commercial real estate industry. No single real estate company can do this alone and we need a strong collective voice to both educate and participate in these valuable discussions with all stakeholders. NAIOP does exactly this as our members continue to shape commercial real estate in Metro Vancouver and British Columbia.

Over the past few years we have focused on numerous key issues, representing our industry in consultation with many municipalities and government bodies including but not limited to: •consultation regarding development charges pending TransLink Phase II expansion •improving the City of Vancouver’s CAC negotiations process for office developments •communication with the City of Richmond on DCC increases

•dialogue pertaining to the City of Vancouver’s False

Creek Flats Plan There is good reason for our voice to be heard. The June 2017 Economic Impact Report, conducted by the University of British Columbia Sauder School of Business Centre for Urban Economics and Real Estate, indicates that NAIOP Vancouver members generate nearly $9.7 billion in economic activity and $4.5 billion in GDP in Metro Vancouver alone. NAIOP Vancouver members are also responsible for the creation of over 200,000 direct, indirect and induced jobs in the Lower Mainland. In short, we make a significant contribution to our economy, and I am delighted to see the best of the best being honoured at the awards gala next month.

I congratulate all the finalists and look forward to an exceptional evening on Thursday, May 17.

The catalyst was a 45,580-sq.-ft. build-to-suit lease with DAMCO, executed and occupied within 12 months of lease signing. Once DAMCO was fully operational, Beedie executed a forward purchase agreement with Oxford Properties. This created a structure that allowed Beedie to maintain its construction interest in the remaining two speculative buildings.

An important component of the project was to enhance the area without jeopardizing the established essence of the neighborhood, which dates back to the 1940s. Community gardens, generous greenways, and the relocation and revitalization of heritage buildings are several features that emphasize a commitment to the current neighbourhood dynamic. The architectural design takes strong cues from the adjacent Legislature and Queen’s Printer building. A broad plaza connects the lobbies of the two office buildings, providing social gathering space for the public and people who live and work at Capital Park.
