New Additions Highlight Development Potential in Chilliwack

August 22, 2024

Three new properties have been added to Build Chilliwack, showcasing both development opportunities and community resilience in the city.

46197 & 46199 First Avenue: These adjacent properties are currently bare land and present a prime opportunity for residential redevelopment. Zoned as "Residential 3 - Low Rise Apartment," they are well-suited for mixed-density housing, such as townhouses or low-rise apartments. The potential for higher density, combined with proximity to transit, makes these lots ideal for contributing to Chilliwack’s diverse housing needs.

9178 Williams Street: Another bare land property, this site is also zoned for low-rise apartments or townhouses. Its strategic location near transit makes it a strong candidate for higher-density development, aligning with the city’s goals for affordable and inclusive housing.

9310 Williams Street (Cross Connection Church): After being destroyed by fire in September 2023, Cross Connection Church is set to be rebuilt. The church, originally established in 1948, remains a vital part of the community, with reconstruction plans now underway.

These properties reflect Chilliwack’s growth and commitment to revitalization. Stay updated on their progress through Build Chilliwack.
