repairs: 1345 w. 6th Ave

Ah, the Granville Island Village. This condo development is looking a little shy, hiding from the rain this winter under a clean white sheet of plastic sheeting. This development is across the street from the previous post and was also submitted by ‘king leaky’.

Included in that price was landscaping that would make the area look wonderful. 2 years later and all I see are weeds everywhere, and tree stumps. Wonderful!
The amount of work that actually went into the repairs was laughable. The $100K went towards chopping down all the previously nice bushes & trees, covering the townhouse with the green scaffolding we’ve all come to recognize, and repairing *2* exterior walls. Then they just replaced the stucco with the equally recognizable post-leaky-condo rainscreen exterior. OH, and overhangs of course.
These repairs ate up all of the value in their townhouse, which they’ve owned for 15+ years, so if they were to sell now they’d break even. Ouch.
