Heather Lands is a large, phased community taking shape in central Vancouver under Canada Lands Company. The plan calls for roughly 2,600 homes — a mix of strata condominiums and social, market, and moderate-income rental units — spread across the site at Heather Street and West 37th Avenue.
With rezoning slated for approval in April 2026 and a build-out expected over about 15 years, this is a long-term project that will reshape a sizeable piece of the city over multiple phases.
Set within central Vancouver, residents would have the everyday advantages of an established, well-serviced part of the city, with shops, dining, and services found across the surrounding neighbourhoods. As the community is delivered in phases, the mix of housing types is intended to support a range of households. Specific on-site and nearby amenities will be confirmed as the plan advances through the approval process.

Buying pre-construction in a phased community like Heather Lands typically starts with registering for early access, which puts you in line for information and first opportunities as each release comes to market. Because the site is planned to roll out over roughly 15 years, different home types and price points may become available at different stages.
Pre-construction purchases in British Columbia are usually secured with a deposit paid in stages over time, followed by an interim period and a final closing once your home is complete. Buying early in a release can matter because pricing and selection are often most favourable before a phase sells through.
In British Columbia, buyers of development units are protected by a 7-day rescission right under REDMA, giving you a short window to review your agreement after signing. Specific deposit structures and terms will be confirmed by the developer.
