Don't let new condos flatten the Brickhouse!
Don't let a new condo development flatten the Brickhouse. Do enter into a real consultation with the Chinatown community to ensure that new developments don't threaten to strip the character of the community and drive more people out of the market.
Why is this important?
Vancouver is drowning in an ocean of copy-and-paste corporate chain bars. The Brickhouse is a great independent bar, but now it could be demolished to make way for a new condo development in Chinatown. The Creekside Student Residence and Jimi Hendrix shrine could be taken out with it.
Please sign now to call for Vancouver's mayor and council to stop the demolition of the Brickhouse and start a real consultation a real consultation with the Chinatown community to ensure that new developments don't threaten to strip the character of the community and drive more people out of the market.
