Burnaby’s Station Square Begins Major Transformation

Burnaby NewsLeader – Burnaby’s Station Square begins major transformation.

Back in the 1950s, Keith Beedie heard that a large piece of property, home to the Ford Motor Co. and Kelly Douglas, could be had for a price.

“They wanted $1 million for it. I thought, ‘are they crazy?'”

He never would have dreamed back then that one day he’d own a large piece of the property, and that the company he founded, Burnaby-based Beedie Development Group, would have a hand in its transformation.

The company, which until now had mainly been known for its industrial development projects, is now run by his son Ryan Beedie and is half-owner of Station Square shopping centre through its residential development division, Beedie Living.
