Property Description
William Wright Commercial is pleased to present the opportunity to secure the anchor restaurant space at SOUNDWØRKS, the exciting redevelopment of Nanaimo's iconic former A&B Sound building.

SOUNDWØRKS is being curated with a complementary mix of retail, food, and service-based businesses, creating a vibrant marketplace environment. The property benefits from strong year-round foot traffic, the popular Commercial Street Night Market, growing cruise ship tourism, and over 300 new residential units planned nearby. With turnkey development potential and a prime location steps from the waterfront and Old City Quarter, this is a rare opportunity to establish a flagship dining destination in one of Nanaimo's growing downtown.

Buyer Decision Support
Before You Buy This Property
The listing tells you what the home looks like. Good due diligence helps you understand what you are actually buying. Depending on the property, servicing, title, renovations, drainage, strata documents and other details can materially affect the decision.
I built the Vancouver Island Property Due Diligence Lab to help you work through the questions worth asking before you get too far into the process.
