Guests of the Invite The World to Vancouver campaign are excited about the freedom that allows them to jump back and forth between the undefended international boundary between Canada and the United States right in the middle of the Peace Arch International Park.

Wanna meet up for an inspection tomorrow? Your $450M renovation project is ready…

When I first texted the above news to members in my circle I got some questions back. So I would like to first explain a little bit before moving on:

1) The building to be inspected: BC Place in Downtown Vancouver. An event entitled BC Place Community Weekend is being held during the weekend April 28-29, 2012, and the admission is free. Pardon me if I have used jargon of our industry in real estate sale: I play the open house event as “house inspection” by owners of a construction work they had paid to complete.

2) The renovation project: The work to rebuild with a retractable roof that has costed British Columbia taxpayers $450M ($450,000,000). So the word “your” in my initial invitation would mean us taxpayers that could include you and me.

No matter what your comment would be on the spending, BC Place is part of our life and as part of the community and the Province, I encourage everyone to take a chance to enjoy a moment of it!

Wonder how the new Port Mann Bridge would look like when it’s done? Well, that could only be found out when it is completed sometime in late 2012 or early 2013.
