Listing Watch — 37,453 sq. ft. Cross-Dock Sublease in South Vancouver
Cross-dock space inside Vancouver is rare. Cross-dock space with a term that ends in February 2029 instead of 2036 is rarer. Unit 15 at 403 East Kent Avenue North is available now.

The unit
Unit 15 sits inside Marine Drive Industrial Centre in South Vancouver, an I-2 zoned complex that already operates as a distribution hub. Cross-dock layouts of this size inside city limits almost never come up, and when they do they usually arrive with a ten-year headlease attached.
- 37,453 sq. ft. cross-dock warehouse and distribution layout with existing office
- Ten dock doors, one with a steel grade ramp
- 23 ft. clear
- 500 amp, 600 volt three-phase power
- Fully sprinklered, gas-fired forced air heat, I-2 zoning
- Flexible layout with demising potential
The deal
Sublease running to February 27, 2029, available immediately. Additional rent is estimated at $8.78 per sq. ft. for 2026; the lease rate is on request. The structure is the point: an operator that needs throughput now gets term certainty in and a clean exit out, without underwriting a ten-year headlease.
Term certainty on the way in, flexibility on the way out.
The location
Marine Drive Industrial Centre is a professionally managed four-building complex of more than 420,000 sq. ft. with after-hours and weekend security patrols. The site feeds directly onto Marine Drive, Knight Street, Oak Street, Highway 91 and Highway 99. Highway 99 is about five minutes out, Richmond City Centre ten, YVR twelve, downtown and Burnaby fifteen, the US border about thirty-five.
Marine Gateway station on the Canada Line is a short trip, and the Marine Drive retail strip covers daily staff needs. For evening-shift hiring, that matters.
Who it fits
Last-mile operators, wholesalers serving downtown and the west side, and companies that need a functional dock-served building while they settle a longer-term facility decision. Demising is possible for a user that does not need the full floor.
Co-listed with Conor Finucane and Colton Hopkins at NAI Commercial. Availability and pricing are as of September 9, 2026. The full listing, photos and brochure are on samuelbrahem.com.
