Trout Lake Townhomes


A Commercial Drive display suite for Trout Lake Townhomes. You don't usually see offices like these so far removed from the site. Could it be that there is nothing standing where these townhomes will be? 

"The Cut" is mentioned -- The Cut being that section of earth and rock blasted away to make way for the railway, with the detritus from those blasts helping to fill-in that part of False Creek from Main Street to Clark Drive, at the western end of which stands Union Station (the "Union" here being that of the Canadian Northern Railway and America's Great Northern Railway).

As for the headline -- "Discover the Nature of the East" -- the play on words is "East" for "Beast", though apart from market developers, there isn't much that is beastly in this part of the city. In fact, I'd be willing to bête on it.
