REVIEWHome ShowcREEVVIEWVVPrevent water damage to your home this winter

According to a recent RBC Insurance sur-vey, 25% of Canadian homeowners have ex-perienced water damage to their home overthe past two years.

Water seepage/leakage inside their homewas the most common cause with basementflooding and roof leaks rounding out the topthree.

But depending on your home insurancepolicy, some of these causes of water damagemay be covered, while others may not.

The company suggests homeowners:• maintain eaves troughs and downspouts

to ensure that leaves and debris are clearfor water flow during rain and snowstorms.home.

• ensure that your roof, doors, windowsand your basement foundation are properlymaintained and seal any cracks to avoid pos-sible seepage or leakage into your home.

• have someone check your property ifyou are going away for more than three days.Drain the plumbing and ensure you main-tain proper heating in your home, as well as

insulate any exposed pipes to prevent freez-ing.

• avoid piling snow against your housefoundation to reduce the risk of water leak-age into your basement. Clearing the snowjust three to five feet from your home shouldreduce any problems.

Safe Riding

Tips

1. Be visible - #1 safety issue we see among bicyclists – use front and back lights, and wear light colored or refl ective rain gear; invisible bicyclists risk their lives, and scare and infuriate even the most empathetic of car drivers.2. Learn to look over your left shoulder – helps with looking before leaving the bike lane

to turn left, pass another cyclist or avoid a car door; helps with changing lanes; helps with making eye contact with passing motorists.

3. Signal – for lane changes or turns, or stopping suddenly; motorists often are very nervous driving around bicyclists because they don’t know what to expect; make your intentions clear, and they’ll generally give you more space and time to do what you need to do; you aren’t required to signal, however, if you need both hands on your handlebars.

4. Take the lane when necessary – sometimes if a lane is so narrow that passing is dan-gerous, you may need to take the lane briefl y to make that clear to drivers behind you; move over as soon as you can safely and let people stuck behind you pass; if you’re going the speed of traffi c, as often happens downtown or on downhills, feel free to take the lane – it is safer and more comfortable.

5. Stay out of the “door zone” – be far enough away from parked cars that if someone opens a door without looking, you don’t have to swerve suddenly.

6. Use extra caution if passing on the right – avoid doing this when there isn’t much room, when people are turning into drive-ways, or when traveling through an intersection; remember, there is no bike lane so drivers do not know to look for you there.

7. Use good manners – if you make a mistake, give the “my bad” wave; if someone does something nice for you, give a wave of “thanks”; give pedestrians lots of space.

Surrey’s City Centre is a real estate hot spot right now, and Concord Pacifi c is right in the thick of this trend with Park Place, which is off ering high-end fl oorplans and fi nishings at a much more aff ordable price.

“Th e plans are well thought-out and fairly fl exible,” says Concord Pacifi c Project Marketing Manager Peter Udzenija. “Th ey really maximize the living and dining spaces.”

Buyers have been moving in since the end of November, and Udzenija says they have appreciated the on-site concierge and extra security who were available during the move-in process.

“It’s a diff erent level of class,” he says. “Surrey really hasn’t seen this before.”

Th ere are 698 suites in the development, spread between two 36-storey concrete high-rise towers with 10 homes per fl oor. Th ere are a mix of one- and two-bedroom homes, though the one-bedroom homes are now sold out.

Inside, there are a variety of fl oorplans to choose from, ranging in size from 818 to 1,552 square feet for the two-bedroom homes. Aluminium-framed laminate cabinets (in your choice of Wenge or Oak) with frosted glass accent cabinets are standard in every home, and are perfectly complemented by Corian countertops and a mosaic-look porcelain tile backsplash in the kitchen.

Th e look is carried over into the master ensuite, which also include a beautiful soaker tub and a counter-mounted sink. Th e main bathrooms are just as elegant, with a large-format ceramic tile shower surround and a drop-in sink.

Every home has an amazing view, with expansive windows and generous open balconies. Depending on the fl oor and direction, views include mountains, Surrey City Centre and a green belt.

However, it is the amenities that are one of the most impressive features of Park Place.

“Th e amenities are incredible,” says Udzenija. “Th ey are bigger than anything we’ve ever done.”

Th e buildings include a large gym with a yoga and Pilates room, theatre, a billiards and game room and two steam rooms. Th e podium level between the two buildings holds a barbecue area, indoor and outdoor lounge and an event kitchen. However, the most exciting amenity is the bowling alley.

“It’s booked from opening to closing every day,” laughs Udzenija. “It was a last-minute addition … we took out some of the commercial (space) to put in the alley.”

As Udzenija noted, the bottom fl oor of each building holds commercial space. No shops have been offi cially announced, but there are rumours of a popular coff ee shop and a large pharmacy.

Remaining homes at Park Place start at $290,000. For more information visit www.parkplaceliving.ca or call 604-583-9866 to make an appointment to see the suites.

Submitted photoThe suites at Concord Pacifi c’s Park Place showcase stunning views from every home, and laminate fl ooring throughout the main living areas.

Park Place a new level of class in City Centre

‘Surrey really hasn’t seen this before’

Suburban living with an urban feel

Surrey’s City Centre: the new downtownSurrey’s City Centre is rapidly becoming

a booming real estate market, with several developers off ering projects in the region. Concord Pacifi c’s Park Place will soon be joined by Park Avenue, both of which are located just steps away from the King George SkyTrain station and the Central City shopping mall. Park Avenue will be home to the largest amenities in western Canada, according to Project Marketing Manager Peter Udzenija.

“Surrey is ready for something this huge,” he says, adding that the entire complex will be the largest urban community of its kind.

“We’re pretty happy that it’s all coming together,” Udzenija says.

Woodbridge Homes’ Th e Brookland is also a highlight in the area. Located minutes from

all of the major amenities in City Centre, the one- and two-bedroom homes are full of elegant features and thoughtful details, including stainless-steel appliances, beautiful hand-set tile fl ooring in the bathrooms and modern touches such as a breakfast bar and dimmable track lighting in the kitchen, so those harsh fl orescent lights are a thing of the past.

Another developer in the area is WestStone Properties with its Ultra project, which will soon hold its grand opening. It is the third phase of WestStone’s master-planned Urban Village community, and joins previous projects Agenda and Element.

With 10 unique fl oorplans to choose from, buyers will have plenty of ways to customize their new homes.

“ The amenities are incredible ... They are bigger

than anything we’ve ever done,” says Project Marketing Manager Peter Udzenija.

Submitted photosWoodbridge Homes’ The Brookland (top two

photos) and Concord Pacifi c’s Park place

(bottom two photos) are truly beautiful

examples of City Centre real estate.

A city is nothing without its culture and architecture, and Surrey’s City Centre is no diff erent. Residents and visitors alike will fi nd no shortage of things to do and see.

City Centre is just blocks away from the Surrey Art Gallery, which includes a large permanent contemporary art collection. Th e gallery prides itself on featuring artwork from local, national and international artists, and also hosts lectures, workshops and courses on art. It is the second largest public art gallery in the Lower Mainland, so budding artists of all ages will easily be able to fi nd inspiration.

Th e City Centre Library is located near Surrey’s new City Hall, which is expected to be completed by 2013. Th e facility includes a cafe, several meeting spaces, a computer learning centre, a teen lounge and gaming room, and more reading materials than you could ever hope to read, in a variety of languages.

Th e library and City Hall will one day be joined by a new performing arts centre and civic centre plaza.

Th e youngest residents of Surrey will also be able to dabble in culture with the opening of an Arts Umbrella location in Concord Pacifi c’s Park Place development.

Th e arts education centre caters to children and youth ages two to 19, and off ers a range of classes, including programs in dance, painting, theatre and photography.

Arts and culture in City Centre

Home construction booming in Surrey’s City Centre ... but that’s not all that’s happening in the area

Th ose in need of retail therapy can rejoice! Th ere are plenty of shopping options available in Surrey’s City Centre area.

Th e largest shopping area is the Central City mall, located on King George Boulevard.

With over 130 shops, restaurants and services, Central City truly has something for everyone.

With a fi ve-storey inner atrium designed by architect Bing Th om, the mall is not only a destination for shoppers. It has appeared in several movies and TV shows, including I, Robot and Smallville.

Guildford Town Centre mall is also just minutes away, with its own selection of shops. Th e mall is currently undergoing a new expansion that is due to open in 2013.

Concord Pacifi c’s Park Place development will also hold its own array of shops on the ground level. Th e list is rumoured to include a coff ee shop and a pharmacy.

Shopping abounds in City Centre

Martin Knowles photo above, submitted photo belowConcord Pacifi c’s Park Place is just the fi rst phase of a community that will eventually encompass nearly 2,300 homes.

Located right in the heart of City Centre, the expansive plaza, below, and stunning architecture are combining to

making Park Place an iconic part of the city.

When you just need a break from the daily grind, look no farther than Surrey’s City Centre, with it’s huge variety of recreation and leisure activities right on your doorstep.

Th e opportunities start as soon as you step off the SkyTrain at the Surrey Central station. Th e North Surrey Recreation Centre includes a skating arena, a weight room, a swimming pool, a physiotherapy clinic and a fi tness studio, among other amenities.

Close by in Tom Binnie Park, the Chuck Bailey Recreation Centre holds a full-court gym. Plans are currently in place to build an outdoor undercover skate and bike park and a lacrosse and hockey box. Th e park is also home to a turf fi eld and outdoor basketball courts.

Th ere are several golf courses in the Surrey area. Th e closest is Eaglequest at Coyote Creek, which the city describes as the fi nest mid-length golf course in the Lower Mainland.

Holland Park is right beside Central City shopping centre, and includes art installations, water fountains and trails. It hosts a variety of events all year, including the annual Fusion Festival and Movies under the Stars.

Parks and playtime

Submitted photoWoodbridge Homes’ The Brooklands is just two minutes from SkyTrain, with every City Centre amenity just down the

street. One- and two-bedroom homes showcase stainless-steel appliances, gorgeous hand-set tile fl ooring in the

bathrooms and a modern breakfast bar in the kitchen.
