112 Moray - Port Moody
CityState is pleased to introduce a proposal to restore the Nielsen Heritage Residence and develop 30 elegant farmhouse-style townhomes on an undeveloped 1-acre site. We designed the project to fit around several mature trees on the property. We look forward to your comments.
What inspired the retention of the trees?
Listen to Carola Alder as she tells the story of this site and explains the interaction of the Pinda family and their neighbours on Flinn Court. She concludes with the decision to incorporate two mature chestnut trees into the design of the site's entrance. Sound ON to hear narration.

Frequently asked questions.How old is the Nielsen Residence?
The Nielsen Residence is 96-years old. It was listed in Port Moody's Heritage Register by Don Luxton, Heritage Consultant. The house is in bad shape, how will it be restored? It will be lifted up and moved onto a new concrete basement built to modern standard to replace the existing broken foundation and damp crawl space. This will stop deterioration. Then the owner will restore the house in accordance with a professional Conservation Plan. Download the house's history here: 
Have you talked to neighbours?
CityState staff knocked on doors on Flinn Court and Edward Crescent. Earlier inquiries (not by CityState) were about 6-storey apartments, so our neighbours are relieved to learn we propose low-rise townhomes.
