Heading 1
Rarely available 27.16 Acres +/- of designated industrial land, with 11.5 Acres +/- of usable land area, located in Boston Bar, BC, 65 KM north of Hope, BC along Trans-Canada Hwy 1. The site, positioned along the Fraser River bank, contains direct rail access for loading across 500m +/- of rail along the Boston Bar CN Station Rail Yard which can be used for freight operations through CN Rail, and is as well currently used for passenger operations by VIA Rail. The Boston Bar CN Station is a segment of CN’s main transcontinental route moving heavy bulk commodity trains directly reaching the Pacific, Atlantic and Gulf of Mexico / Gulf of America coastlines along with 23 intermodal terminals.
The site had been last used as log sort and storage for over 20 years, which consists of compacted gravel fill alongside the rail track with several old concrete foundations scattered across the site, and is currently unzoned which avails opportunity to retain the existing industrial land use designation, or seek rezoning with the Fraser Valley Regional District which may consider uses such as outdoor recreation, RV park, private resort, and others.
The climate in summer months of Boston Bar through July and August are characterized by hot dry conditions with daytime temperatures exceeding 300C. The Fraser Canyon is located in a continental climate, east of the coast. The rain shadow effect from the mountains means it receives significantly less rainfall than the coast.
Boston Bar and North Bend are side by side twin communities located in the Fraser Canyon, a significant valley in the Southern Interior of British Columbia, Canada. The Fraser Canyon is a historic region of British Columbia known for its rugged scenery, including deep gorges, mountains, and waterfalls, which makes it a popular road trip and scenic drive along Highway 1. Rafting tours, fishing charters, campgrounds and indigenous retreats line the Fraser Canyon as part of the tourist economy.
