Located at the corner of Burrard and Drake, One Burrard Place is set to open its doors in 2020. The building is located in the heart of downtown Vancouver with easy access to public transit and the restaurants and shops of Davie Village, Yaletown and Granville Street. We are proud to have played such a crucial role in the construction of this project. Please click for the time-lapse video of the 100-foot excavation by our BelPacific team.

In the last year, Apex Specialized Rigging & Moving and Pro-Tech Industrial Movers (Apex & Pro-Tech) have been striving to make changes that make a difference to our business, community and the environment.  With the help of NorLand, Apex & Pro-Tech are on a new journey towards becoming B Corp Certified and looking forward to what we make of our future. Apex & Pro-Tech are very focused on working as a team, sharing ideas and making those ideas a reality.  With this culture change

It was a hot day outside on May 31^st while we held our annual NorLand Avenue Clean Up. We had 17 volunteers come out and help clean up along NorLand Avenue and collect everything from cigarette butts to water bottles, and even a reclining chair! We filled the back of our pick-up to capacity, full of waste from the street. 

Not only were we able to help keep our environment clean, we also got a workout in while doing it! Thank you to all of our NorLand Volunteers who came out to help.

Our NorLand Family participated in the Sun Run this past weekend and had 36 runners and came 6/69 in our category! It was a great event with all the seasons invovled, including sun, rain, and hail. Thank you to all our NorLand participants and to the organizers of the Sun Run for such a successful day. 

After our run we ordered lunch from Save on Meats in Vancouver and contributed 50 meals to people in need through their meal token program. This weekend truly aligned with Our Shared Purpose, Helping Build Enduring Communities, Together.

This past weekend, NorLand Limited competed for the first time in the 18th Annual Environmental Cup Hockey Tournament.

The 8 team, Round Robin Tournament saw the Consulting Division and Contracting Division battle for the cup. NorLand went undefeated on the contractors side playing tough games against B&B, Matcon, and McRae’s Environmental to advance to beat PGL Environmental Consultants in close Final Game.

NorLand has recently become a proud member of the Canadian Construction Women (CCW) Association. CCW is a non-profit organization built to support and inspire women in the Construction Industry. We continue to build our organization with Diversity and Inclusion in mind, and we are proud to be supporting the CCW through these efforts.

The mental state of our workers, and ourselves, is not discussed often enough in the construction industry. The fast pace of construction projects can take a toll on everyone, and we should understand when our mental health is being affected.

For the second year running, the NorLand family rented out a sheet of ice at Burnaby 8 rinks for the NorLand Holiday Classic. Members from all business units were invited out for the skate, which took place on Decemeber 21st, followed by a Christmas lunch down the road at the NorLand head office. It was a fantastic send off for a succesful year and a true example of a NorLand core value "Teammates Get Treated Like Family."

Congratulations to Farzad Sadeghi and John Guremel on receiving the 2018 NorLand Limited Scholarship's in Construction Management at BCIT. These scholarships recognize accomplishments in academics, project management, and entrepreneurship. Last week at our head office, we were fortunate to have Farzad and John join us to discuss their future ambitions and to congratulate them for their hard work and dedication. As both of these individuals move forward with school and in their careers, we would like to wish them the best and a well-deserved holiday break.

This past October was the First Annual NorLand Sock Drive in partnership with Living The Dream Team. We raised $2,930.00 of our $3,000.00 goal and donated 1320 pairs of socks and 750 granola bars! We also received donations of over 200 socks from Tentree, 120 granola bars from Mills Office Productivity, and 300 tubes of toothpaste and dental hygeine kits from Alpha Dental Group in Brentwood Mall. NorLanders graciously filled the donation boxes around the offices and assisted in handing the socks out on a very rainy day.
