Models of the planned Alder Grove Town Centre project, and an interior mock-up of a suite in the buildings were unveiled by the builders, Janda Group, on Monday, Nov. 23.
On display at the presentation centre, the display includes a section dedicated to the history of Aldergrove, which features an antique telegraph exchange on loan from the Aldergrove Heritage Society and historic photographs and biographies of prominent Aldergrove citizens.
Sales manager Jodie Gilbraitti, who grew up in Aldergrove, said there has been an 鈥渆xtraordinary鈥 response to the project, planned for the site of a mostly-empty mall at 3100 272nd St.
More than 3,000 people have registered to visit the presentation centre, located at 27309 Fraser Hwy. in Aldergrove, which isn鈥檛 taking drop-ins.

鈥淚鈥檝e lived here since I was six years old, so for me, I鈥檓 very passionate about this, and what it鈥檚 going to do for our community鈥 Gilbraitti commented.
鈥淚 think a lot of people are eager to see the transformation that will take place.鈥
A walk-through a mock-up of a two-bedroom with den suite showed off touches like a pull-out pantry and high-end appliances that included a gas stove and fridge with french doors and bottom freezer.
A few minor elements of the display had yet to be installed due to the impact of recent flooding on deliveries, including some touchscreen displays and a dishwasher for the suite display.
鈥淯nfortunately we have a few fitting that have been held up,鈥 Gilbraitti explained.

Gilbraitti said the 3D models show the first phase of the project, three buildings planned for the site that will bear the names of pioneer Aldergrove families: Jackman, Shortreed, and Vanetta.
All will have shared amenities with local businesses based in the ground floors.
Vanetta will be a 10-storey, steel framed building with four floors of parking topped by six floors of residential units.
Units are anticipated to go between $334,900 and $624,900 plus taxes.
