Otis To Provide 15 Elevators for New Burnaby Master-Planned Community

Otis President and CEO Judy Marks announced during a third quarter 2023 earnings call on October 25 that the company has been contracted to provide seven SkyRise^® and eight Gen3^TM Edge elevators to South Yards, a new master-planned community by Anthem Properties in the Brentwood neighborhood of Burnaby, Canada. To be built over four phases, South Yards will include 2,500 homes across five high-rise and three low- to mid-rise buildings, 60,000 ft² of commercial space and a one-acre community park. At the “gateway to the downtown core of Brentwood,” according to Anthem, the entire community will span 8.3 acres. The developer observes South Yards will offer pedestrian and bicycle lanes that connect to Burnaby’s Alaska Street Urban Rail and is within a 5-min walk of a SkyTrain station as well as the restaurants, shops and entertainment venues of Brentwood.
