BUILDING KAMLOOPS (Part 6): Sun Rivers has 1,000 units left to build
In the sixth instalment of our series Building Kamloops, we cross the river into Tk’emlups territory to look at the development at Sun Rivers. Demand for housing at the resort community has boomed in the last six months, and that has ignited the construction of more homes.
Sun Rivers is a community tucked right below Mt. Peter and Paul, and alongside the newly renamed Big Horn golf course. It’s a community that’s growing steadily as you climb the hill. The biggest development happening right now is Rio Vista, a 58-unit neighbourhood spearheaded by 19th Ventures.
“We’re calling it an ‘adult-oriented’ community, so the concept is that these are homes that are targeted towards mainly people that are retiring or wanting to downsize,” said project manager with 19th Ventures Martin Daburger.
