Centennial Theatre Centre is located in North Vancouver, one block south of Highway #1 (Upper Levels Highway) at the Northeast corner of Lonsdale Avenue and 23rd Street. The Centennial Theatre Centre features 705 seats, a proscenium arch, a 25-musician orchestra pit, fabulous live acoustics, a spacious, modern lobby and a colourful, vibrant neon art piece flowing from the fly tower entitled "The Veil". The theatre was renovated in 2001 to improve accessibility for people with disabilities, lobby areas and performer's change rooms.

Located approximately one block from Lonsdale at St. George's Avenue and East 11th Street, this 38,810 square foot park recently underwent a significant revitalization. New and innovative playground equipment and gathering spaces have captured the imagination of nearby residents, and in particular, the neighbourhood's children. The park serves a surrounding residential area that is comprised mainly of duplexes, triplexes, and medium to high-density apartments. The park is the 2003 recipient of the Regional Honour Award for design from the Canadian Society of Landscape Architects Professional Awards Program.

This project is one of only 5 completed Co-housing developments in BC.
Co-housing describes neighbourhoods that combine the autonomy of private dwellings with the advantages of shared resources and community living. Residents usually own their individual homes, which are clustered around a "common house" with shared amenities.

At Quayside Village, the stained glass windows, wood doors and oak floors from the homes that were originally on the site were recycled and included in the design. The project has beeen constructed to standards set by the BC Hydro Power Smart Program and the BC Gas (Terasen) Energy Efficiency program. The building also has a state-of-the-art greywater recycling system. The project is somewhat unique for Co-housing in that it includes a Commercial Retail Unit that features a reproduction of the cupola from a convenience store that was previously on site.

In 1997 and 1998 a number of Zoning Bylaw and Official Community Plan amendments were made to accommodate the redevelopment of public and private properties in what is known as the Lower Lonsdale Planning Study Area. Vacant lots and surface level parking are gradually being replaced by high-density residential developments and community amenity spaces. A centrepiece of the redevelopment plans is a new public plaza on West First Street, named Jack Loucks Court after a former Mayor. Directly across the street the Lower Lonsdale Community Centre is under construction as part of a 266 dwelling unit project, that will also incorporate a major food store. The City, in conjunction with Terasen has formed the "Lonsdale Energy Corporation" to manage a Community Energy System (CES). All buildings to be constructed on City lands will be required to utilize hot water heating, which is compatible with a possible future connection to the CES.
