“We bought a 2-bedroom home
at District Crossing.”
Pam, Kevin & daughter Maddie
Presentation Centre: 802-1150 Marine Drive, North Vancouver Open noon - 5pm daily except Fridays

Sample 1
When you come in to view District Crossing, you will see real display homes in the actual building. They’re not mock-ups in a sales centre
with artifi cial views. What you see is literally what you will get, and with construction well along, you won’t have to wait for years to move
into your new home. And now, owning at home at District Crossing is even easier with only a 5% deposit due at signing and an additional
5% due two months later. Shop and compare. Our purchasers did and they came back to buy at District Crossing. Unbeatable prices
and quality. Below is an example of just how easy and affordable it can be to buy a new home and move in this year.
