First Track Development

First Track Development Building better. Together. At First Track Development, we’re building better, together. The homes and buildings we create don’t follow a pattern or the crowd.

They positively affect people — that’s the secret to inspiring communities and lives. First Track started on the premise that we would do things differently — walk the real estate paths least taken. We are determined to build things that matter, to make a positive imprint on communities, and to collaborate with people who want the same. At the end of the day, we are locals who want to see our city progress in better and inspiring ways, together.

A home is a place where you are always welcome. First Track started on the premise that we would do things differently — walk the real estate paths least taken. I am determined to build things that matter, to make a positive imprint on communities, and to collaborate with people who want the same.

From my family to yours, Happy Holidays.

The best things in life are the people we love, the places we've been, and the memories we've made along the way. I am proud of the work we are doing to create places that bring people joy and happiness. At the end of the day, we are locals who want to see our city progress in better and more inspiring ways, together.

From my family to yours, Happy Holidays.

COMMUNITY • TROUT LAKE

Check out these great photos taken in 1929 of Vancouverites enjoying Trout Lake as a skating rink! The Vancouver Park Board regularly measures the thickness of the ice at the city’s ponds to pass the 12cm safety mark. Fingers crossed it gets icy this winter!

If it doesn't pass the test, the Trout Lake Community Centre's Skating Rink isn't a bad second option. Built as a training venue for the 2010 Olympic Games, the rink is NHL size and super popular.

Meet the People Behind EKISTICS

With a portfolio of award-winning projects, EKISTICS specializes in sustainable planning, architecture, and more. We're stoked to be working with Charles, Senna and Mark on Woodland Block.

We recently connected with Charles Leman, Senior Project Architect, to chat all things East Van.

Best thing about East Van?
C: I love the attitude. East Van is ‘real real’. No pretense. It’s relaxing and energizing at the same time.

There is great food: the little Italian butchers, cheese shops, bakeries, BEER!

Favourite East Van spot?
C: Tacofino Commissary.

Best hidden secret?
I wouldn’t claim to be enough of an insider to call it a hidden secret… but Downlow Chicken Shack is really good.

SPOTLIGHT - Caffe La Tana

Caffe La Tana is one of our fav East Van spots to dine, and wine! To say we are thrilled about the news that the wine bar is now open is an understatement.

In the words of Fellini, “There is no end. There is no beginning. There is only the infinite passion of life.”

No reservations are required. Walk right in and try some small plates and pasta to share, and an all-Italian wine list!

Buon appetito!

Get to Know the Woodland Block Crew

Allow us to introduce ourselves: we're Sasha Faris, Matt Ilich and James Evans.

James joined Matt and Sasha from First Track Development as Development Manager to design the community we want to live in. Literally. East Van is our home, and we want you to love it as much as we do.

Our favourite East Van spots?
M: Pepinos: pizza and a negroni, simple but effective.
S: Renzullo! Local Italian legend and owner Franco remembers your name, your order, and then some. They make the best Americano in the city.
J: Kishimoto Japanese Restaurant, my go-to order is the spicy karaage and a Sapporo.
