When I came upon this home I could not but immediately think of the hillarious scene from National Lampoon's Christmas where Clark Griswald, always over the top with sentimentality, completely covers his house with Christmas lights that blind the neighbours with intensity when he finally gets them to work.
This beautiful display located on the northside of Port Coquitlam real estate is right up there with the best and is a must see on any Tri-Cities Xmas lights tour. Well worth a drive out from Maple Ridge:  … (2 comments)

port: Port Coquitlam Railroad Overpass nears completion - 01/07/10 05:05 PM
Today I was marveling at the nearing completion phase of the Port Coquitlam railway overpass project at Coast Meridian.  This near 100 million dollar project will link up the North and South sides of Port Coquitlam eliminating the bottlenecks at the Shaughnessy railroad underpass and the Mary Hill Bypass.

The massive changes and reorienting of the road network are mind boggling.  The most obvious change that this overpass project has forced is noticeable at the Coast Meridian and Lougheed Hwy where the Tim Hortons and PoCo Inn and Suites have had significant changes to their access and sites.

port: Transitional Rules for HST in BC for new Real Estate Construction - 11/19/09 09:12 AM
The British Columbia Government has released important details today with respect to the transitional implementation of the HST with resepct to new Real Estate construction.  The tax will not just occur on July 1, 2010 but will be phased in.  This is an important consideration for builders and buyers.

port: BC Increases threshold for new BC HST Real Estate purchases - 11/19/09 09:01 AM
The Province is proposing to increase the threshold for the B.C. HST new housing rebate from $400,000 to $525,000 to ensure that, on average, purchasers of new homes up to $525,000 pay no more tax due to harmonization, Finance Minister Colin Hansen announced today.

"We heard the concerns from consumers and industry about how the HST might affect home buyers, and this increase will move the threshold to above the average new home price in the province. At $26,250, this provides the highest maximum provincial rebate in Canada," said Hansen. "A similar rebate will also support the construction or substantial … (1 comments)
