Not Riverview; asylum in New Jersey before and after photos. Hopefully the buildings at Riverview hospital will never look like that one; but wait a minute we have West Lawn, which was better built actually than the one in New Jersey, and that has been allowed to fall apart through neglect.
Open houses on R'view future start soon. But after they destroy the transport services buildings, and a panoramic picture of the soon to be destroyed buildings.
A day or two ago, the Coquitlam City, Riverview Lands Advisory Committee,(RLAC) met at City hall, and were given the presentation below, gleaned from a pdf of what looks like dreaded powerpoint files; can you say boring ?
