The federal land on which Centerm sits is expanding by about 15 per cent. Infill is being added at either side of the terminal, primarily as space to hold containers after they’ve been taken off ships and before they are loaded onto rail cars for shipment to the rest of Canada (and vice versa).
Larson says he’s expecting the infill portion of the project to soon be filled with a wall of shipping containers.
As he has been for decades, he’s keen on drawing attention to the Downtown Eastside’s only public waterfront park. In the 1980s, Downtown Eastside community members worked long and hard to get a park created on land owned by the Port of Vancouver, including occupying the site with tents in 1984.
Centerm expansion project – February update February 10, 2021, by Zlatan Hrvacevic
Construction work under the Centerm Expansion Project continues and is progressing well, according to the Port of Vancouver.
The preload settlement in the eastern expansion area is completed and is currently being moved to infill the area around the perimeter of the original Ballantyne Pier, the port said in the update.
They also added that the infilling and preload placement in the western expansion area was completed in December 2020 and ground densification is underway behind the caissons.
Ground densification behind the caissons is required in order to support the new south quay crane leg, which will run along a new concrete beam and rail.
