The town of Valleyview had a bold vision: a world-class recreation center that would serve the entire region. The result? An 82,000+ square foot multiplex—complete with competition pools, a fieldhouse, fitness facilities, and community spaces—rivalling amenities found in cities ten times the size.
This was a project with heart—a facility built not just for today, but for generations to come. For Scott Builders, it was an opportunity to prove what’s possible when transparency, creativity, and community alignment come together.
The project faced significant challenges, but Scott Builders focused on solving issues and finding creative solutions to move forward.
We approached these challenges with strategic thinking and collaborative solutions. Here's how we made it work:
Radical Transparency: We opened our books—transforming a lump-sum contract into a collaborative, cost-plus-style partnership. This approach unlocked value-engineering savings and strengthened trust with the client.
Creative Housing Solution: We purchased a house across the street from the site, solving multiple issues: worker accommodations, 24/7 site security, and reduced travel delays.
Best-in-Class Pool Construction: We sourced North Vancouver experts to support complex pool integration and systems coordination, ensuring details aligned with the facility’s goals and expectations.
Innovative Sequencing: We pre-excavated pools and constructed the suspended slab before erecting the steel structure—unconventional moves that solved site and water management challenges.
Despite many change orders, Scott Builders delivered this project within its revised budget—on time and without compromise. The completed multiplex features:
More than a building, the facility became a regional hub—serving not only Valleyview’s 1,700 residents but also the surrounding communities. It was such a success that Scott Builders was re-engaged for the Town Hall project before the multiplex even opened.
And here’s a lasting detail: inside the facility, a decorative tree in the lobby bears engraved leaves—each one purchased by a Scott Builders team member, marking their personal connection to a project that helped shape a community.
Greenview taught us that transparency isn’t just good business—it’s a competitive edge. By working shoulder-to-shoulder with the client, opening our books, and solving problems together, we built more than a facility. We built trust, credibility, and community pride.
Every municipality has a vision that seems just out of reach—whether it's budget constraints, complex requirements, or unique site challenges. What the Greenview project proves is that the right construction partner doesn't just execute your plans; we help you reimagine what's possible.
With over 50 years of experience, Scott Builders has learned that the best projects happen when construction expertise meets genuine partnership. We bring:
"The Greenview Multiplex was more than just a building project—it was a testament to what teamwork and transparency can accomplish. We listened, we innovated, and we delivered far more than a building. We delivered a hub for a community."
