A 27-storey residential tower is proposed for the site of the Burquitlam Funeral Home on North Road.

The Burquitlam tower will include 195 units and was designed by IBI Group for developer IKOR Group.

The unit breakdown is as follows:

A colour palette of white, light grey and grey is proposed. Materials include spandrel glass, architectural concrete, painted concrete, metal panels and aluminum frames.

The Burquitlam Funeral Home will be relocated to 815 Brunette Avenue ahead of construction, says IKOR Group.
