Port Coquitlam continues to sell off surplus city land with six more residential lots on the market.
The city hopes to collect at least $2.3 million for the vacant southside lots — located at 1934-1954 McLean Ave. — that are included in its land sale strategy.
The city has held the properties since the 1920s. "The city wishes to provide for additional housing in the community and has determined the market would be supportive of a sale at this time," a city spokesperson said in an email.
The proceeds will go into the city's land sales reserve account. The sale period ends Feb. 9.
Last year, the city sold a 1.8-acre parcel, zoned for multi-family residential housing, at 2560 Pitt River Rd. for $5.4 million; it had been assessed at $3.68 million.
