The 0.25 hectare (0.62 acre) site is located in the North Gateway neighbourhood of Penticton, which is envisioned for substantial redevelopment over the next few decades. It is currently vacant and zoned for Medium Density Multiple Housing. The City adopted the North Gateway Area Plan in 2022 to guide the residential, commercial, and civic redevelopment in the neighbourhood. The plan calls for 1,750 to 2,250 new units, with 5-10% of new homes as employee housing. A workforce housing development through BC Builds will help realize the workforce housing targets in the North Gateway Area Plan.
