LOLA Architecture is working with Whistle Stop Holdings on the design of a new mixed-use multi-family project on the existing Whistle Stop Pub site in Courtenay, BC. The existing site currently has a small pub and a large parking lot. The project will be phased and will begin by constructing a new five-storey development on the existing parking lot and subsequently demolishing the pub after construction is complete.

The development will have four residential levels (30 units in total) with majestic views of the estuary or Comox glacier, a ground-floor pub and liquor store, and two levels of below-grade parking. The project is in the design development phase and is currently pending land-use and development permit approval.
