The Site

Location and Area

The Westport Village site is located in Port Moody on the northeast corner of Barnet Highway and Clarke Street within the Moody Centre neighbourhood. Moody Centre is one of the most diverse neighbourhoods in Port Moody from a land use perspective. For density calculations, the site area is a net area of 217,835 sq. ft. or 5 acres. The site is currently occupied by a large industrial warehouse located in the north-central portion of the property, south of the Evergreen Line right-of-way, and is surrounded by asphalt surfaced access and parking areas.

The western edge of the site is occupied by South Schoolhouse Creek and its associated riparian area. The remaining edges of the site are flanked by public streets: Clarke Street to the south, Douglas Street to the east, and Short Street to the north. The northern portion of the site is bisected by the Evergreen Line and its substation.
