Located in Penticton’s emerging Urban Centre, 450 Martin represents a significant addition to the city’s evolving downtown core. The site is advancing plans for a mixed-use residential and commercial development comprising 199 homes within the C5 – Urban Centre Commercial zoning framework at a 4.83 FAR, bringing new density and housing opportunities to one of Penticton’s most connected neighbourhoods.
Thoughtfully designed to contribute to a vibrant and walkable downtown, the project integrates ground-oriented commercial space with residential homes above, supporting both local business activity and long-term housing supply. The proposed form aligns with Penticton’s Urban Centre vision by strengthening the downtown streetscape, promoting pedestrian activity, and introducing new residential density within walking distance of key amenities.
Positioned just blocks from Okanagan Lake and the city’s waterfront park system, residents will benefit from immediate access to Penticton’s beaches, marina, and recreational pathways. The site also sits within close proximity to the city’s downtown retail corridor, local restaurants and cafés, cultural venues, and the seasonal Penticton Farmers’ Market. With convenient connections to Highway 97 and the broader South Okanagan region, the development offers an ideal setting for modern urban living in one of the Okanagan Valley’s most distinctive lakefront communities.
