Kinetic Construction

We’re thrilled to announce that Courtenay branch’s projects have been recognized with two prestigious awards at the 2025 Vancouver Island Commercial Building Awards!

🏆 Retail Award of Excellence
Quinsam Crossing Retail Development, located at 101-125 Brant Drive in Campbell River, the Quinsam Crossing Retail Development is a dynamic commercial center on the We Wai Kai Community. Designed to reflect the spirit of “Quinsam – the resting place,” this project features a mix of thoughtfully selected retail and commercial spaces built by Kinetic, including Starbucks Quinsam Crossing and Quinsam Liquor Store Ltd. Significantly, the Starbucks at Quinsam Crossing is the first café and drive-thru in Canada to be both licensed and operated by a First Nation community. This Indigenous-led initiative is a powerful example of community-driven development, creating local employment opportunities and contributing to the continued economic growth and success of the We Wai Kai Nation.

Huge thanks to the We Wai Kai - Cape Mudge First Nation and WA Architects for their vision and collaboration on this exciting project.

🏆 Affordable Housing Award of Excellence
Naut’sa mawt Affordable Housing Project, located at 1679 McPhee Avenue in Courtenay, the Naut’sa mawt Affordable Housing Project provides 40 homes for Indigenous Elders, individuals, and people with disabilities living on low to moderate incomes. The name “Naut’sa mawt,” meaning “together as one” in Coast Salish, beautifully captures the project’s emphasis on community, inclusivity, and cultural connection. Designed with residents in mind, the building features a dedicated gathering space for culturally appropriate programming—such as community feasts, storytelling, and other traditional events—that foster a strong sense of belonging. Construction followed BC Housing’s Design and Construction Standards and achieved Energy Step Code 4 compliance, ensuring improved indoor health and comfort, lower utility costs, reduced greenhouse gas emissions, and greater community resilience.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to the Wachiay Friendship Centre, M'akola Housing Society, Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC), and BC Housing for their vision, leadership, and financial support in bringing this meaningful project to life.
