Polaris Realty has completed its multi-million dollar redevelopment project of the Harbour Centre food court in downtown Vancouver. The newly renovated lower level and food court officially opened in late January.

The expanded eating and common area occupies approximately 17,500 square feet of space and can seat more than 600 patrons. Work on the extensive interior upgrades began in spring 2013 and focused on creating a brighter, more welcoming space. This was done by creating higher ceilings and open-concept lounge spaces, and using a fresh colour palette.

Other new features include complimentary Wi-Fi zones, larger washroom facilities and digital directories.

Work is now underway on the building’s exterior façade, which is set to be completed in late spring. New features like wider entryways, new canopies, and improved signage will add colour and light to the building, thereby improving street presence for pedestrians.
