Our Journey

Pioneering Excellence in Multi-Family Construction and Property Management on Northern Vancouver Island

2006: A Vision Takes Shape

In early 2006, Crowne Pacific Development embarked on its inaugural project, a single-family home nestled at 639 Heritage Meadow Drive. This endeavor marked the genesis of a journey aimed at redefining residential development standards in Campbell River.

2009: A Recognition of Entrepreneurial Spirit

At the young age of 21, Brett Giese was honored as the Young Entrepreneur of the Year by the City of Campbell River Chamber of Commerce, a testament to his visionary and innovative approach to business.

2010: Setting a New Benchmark

With the unveiling of Waterside, the first purpose-built rental apartment building in Campbell River in over two decades, Crowne Pacific ushered in a new era of excellence. Waterside not only set a new standard for rental apartments, solidifying its status as the epitome of quality living on the North Island, but also established a perpetual waitlist.

2011: Foundations of Luxury

The inception of Veyron Properties Group in 2011 heralded a commitment to redefine property management, embodying the vision of “A Community Within”. Veyron Properties and Crowne Pacific’s first joint development was 390 Carolyn Rd, in Campbell River. As the cornerstone of Veyron's ambitious goal to craft 500 quality rentals on the North Island, this project exemplified a dedication to unparalleled quality and sophistication.

2011: Cornerstone of Growth

In the same year, Cornerstone emerged as the largest purpose-built apartment building in Campbell River in over two decades. As the first new building in the bustling Merecroft area, it marked a pivotal moment in urban development, laying the groundwork for future progress in a now densely populated area. Cornerstone was the first Crowne Pacific building to be a finalist at the Vancouver Island Real Estate Board (VIREB) Awards.

2015: Expanding Horizons

Acadia made history as the first and largest purpose-built rental in the Comox Valley in over 30 years, further solidifying Crowne Pacific's reputation as a trailblazer in multi-family residential innovation across Vancouver Island. Acadia marked Crowne Pacific and Veyron Properties' first development outside of Campbell River.

2017: Heights of Achievement

The unveiling of The Lookout marked a significant milestone as the first strata condo to grace Campbell River in nearly a decade and earned Crowne Pacific its first VIREB Award of Excellence.

Brett Giese's recognition as one of BC Business's 30 Under 30 underscored his exemplary leadership and unwavering commitment to excellence.

2020: Reaching New Heights

Neo soared to unprecedented heights as the highest-density purpose-built apartment building on the North Island, earning Crowne Pacific its second VIREB Award of Excellence. This achievement underscored Crowne Pacific's relentless pursuit of innovation and quality.

2021: Pinnacle of Success

Parq Shore made history with the sale of the first condo unit surpassing $1 million in Campbell River, marking another milestone in Crowne Pacific's journey. The accolade of a third VIREB Award of Excellence reaffirmed their position as industry leaders.

2022: Fulfilling a Vision

Montage, in Courtenay, stood tall as the largest purpose-built rental building ever constructed on the North Island, marking the realization of Crowne Pacific's goal to provide 500 rental units within a decade.

Crowne Pacific and Veyron Properties' flagship head office development, Pier 1, was recognition as the first mixed-use building to receive a VIREB Award of Excellence signaling a new era of revitalization along the historic Pier Street corridor in Campbell River.

2023: Expanding Boundaries

Uptown emerged as the largest rental apartment complex in Powell River, a testament to Crowne Pacific's commitment to elevating communities beyond Campbell River. Its status as the first six-story building in Powell River underscored a legacy of innovation and progress.

2024: A Visionary Landmark

Vue transcended boundaries as the highest floor area to lot area ratio building on the North Island, embodying Crowne Pacific's unwavering dedication to pushing the limits of architectural ingenuity and design excellence.

2024 and Beyond: A Future Defined by Excellence

As Crowne Pacific and Veyron Properties look ahead, the journey towards excellence continues. With a steadfast commitment to innovation, quality, and community development, the best is yet to come. Each milestone represents the enduring legacy Crowne Pacific and Veyron Properties are creating on Vancouver Island and beyond.
