VREP #476 | How SkyTrain Shopping Malls Became the Blueprint for Vancouver Urban Living with Darren Kwiatkowski


Listen Later

Metro Vancouver real estate isn't being built on empty lots—it's rising from the parking lots of suburban shopping malls beside SkyTrain hubs. Shape Properties Executive VP and Founding Partner Darren Kwiatkowski sits down with Adam & Matt this week to unpack how his company has transformed aging retail centers like Brentwood and Lougheed into thriving mixed-use communities that have become regional energy hubs. From buying Brentwood Mall during the 2008 financial crisis to building multiple 60-storey towers at the same time, this conversation details the vision & the execution required to take on projects that require commitments measured in decades not years. What makes one SkyTrain station "lakefront property" while another lags? How can investors spot the difference? And what can you learn from a company that blocks out the noise to think in terms of generational change? Don't miss this insider's perspective on the future of Metro Vancouver's urban landscape.
