41429 Government Rd

41429 Government Road in Squamish, BC is a thoughtfully designed multi-family residential development that introduces pedestrian-oriented, missing-middle housing to a walkable neighbourhood in the Sea to Sky corridor. The project includes 19 homes—studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom townhomes—organized around a generous elevated courtyard above a single-level parkade. This podium approach meets required flood construction levels while transforming a technical constraint into a community asset: a secure, landscaped outdoor space shared by all residents.

Every project begins with the question: What story does this place need to tell? For this site, the story is rooted in Squamish’s identity—simple forms, durable materials, and a close relationship to the outdoors. The buildings are scaled to fit the neighbourhood, oriented to capture natural light and mountain views, and arranged to support both privacy and casual neighbourly connection.

A neighbourhood-serving commercial unit at street level activates Government Road and adds daily convenience for residents and the surrounding community. With walkable access to transit, schools, recreation, and local amenities, the project reinforces the village character of Squamish while providing modern, attainable homes for singles, couples, and families.
