The Opportunity

Industrial land where the supply chain actually runs

Terrace is the service and supply centre for Northwestern British Columbia — the staging ground for the region's LNG exports, mining operations, port logistics, and heavy industrial construction. The Talstra Lands put 16.85 acres of contiguous, divisible industrial land directly in that corridor.

Four parcels on Jack Talstra Way can be leased individually or together, for land lease, laydown and storage yards, warehousing, or build-to-suit office/warehouse bays. The site sits minutes from the Northwest Regional Airport and the broader Terrace industrial area, with Highway 16 and CN Rail moving hundreds of Class 8 trucks and rail cars through the region every week.

Location & Logistics

A regional connectivity hub

Terrace sits at the intersection of two highways, a Class-1 rail line, and two deep-sea ports — the logistics backbone of Northwest BC.

Port of Prince Rupert

Canada's third-largest container terminal and closest deep-sea port to Asia — 137 km west by uncongested highway. Ice-free, deep-water, with direct CN Rail service. The fastest North American ocean route to Asian markets.

137 kmDeep-seaCN Rail

Port of Kitimat

Home to the Rio Tinto aluminum smelter and the terminus of the Coastal GasLink pipeline — 64 km south. LNG Canada's export terminal is operational here, with Phase 2 expansion proposed to double capacity to 28 mtpa.

64 kmLNGSmelter

CN Rail Mainline

The CN mainline runs approximately 10 km from the site — BC's fastest port-to-US rail connection. The Kitsukalum First Nation is developing a break-bulk and intermodal transload facility approximately 15 km away.

~10 kmClass-1 railTransload

Highway 16 & 37

The Trans-Canada Highway 16 runs east–west through Terrace, connecting to Prince George (575 km east). Highway 37 connects north to the Alaska Highway and south to the Lakelse Lake region.

Hwy 16Hwy 37Trans-Canada

Northwest Regional Airport

Immediately adjacent to the Talstra Lands, serving Terrace and Kitimat. Offers airside and groundside commercial land and hangar opportunities for aviation-supportive industrial uses.

Prince George & Inland Hub

575 km east on Highway 16, Prince George is the regional supply centre for Central and Northern BC — connecting Terrace to the broader provincial distribution network and CN Rail's transcontinental route.

Why Terrace

The demand engine behind the land

Terrace is the supply and service hub for one of Canada's most active industrial corridors — LNG exports, mining, port logistics, and heavy construction.

LNG Canada
Canada's first LNG export terminal
Canada's first LNG export terminal at Kitimat (~64 km). Phase 2 would double capacity to 28 mtpa — a proposed ~$30–33B expansion targeting a 2026 FID.
2 ports
Prince Rupert & Kitimat
Two deep-sea ports within 137 km. Prince Rupert is Canada's closest port to Asia; Kitimat hosts LNG Canada and the Rio Tinto smelter.
Golden Triangle
BC's richest mining district
One of the world's most prolific mineral districts — operating mines (Brucejack, Red Chris) and major proposed projects (KSM, Galore Creek) drive sustained demand for industrial land.
$6B
Rio Tinto Kitimat smelter
The Rio Tinto aluminum smelter at Kitimat underwent a $6 billion modernization — one of the largest private investments in BC history.
CN Rail
Fastest port-to-heartland rail
CN Rail provides the fastest rail connection from a BC port to the US Midwest and Ontario — the transcontinental backbone for the region's export economy.
Cedar & Ksi Lisims
Next-wave LNG projects
The Haisla-led Cedar LNG and the Nisga'a-led Ksi Lisims LNG (~$10B) projects extend the region's export pipeline.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Key details about the parcels, zoning, utilities, and leasing options.

What uses are suitable for Talstra Lands?

The parcels are suited to laydown yards, warehousing and distribution, office/warehouse bays, fleet and Class 8 truck servicing, LNG and mining supply, and build-to-suit facilities. Lots A and B (M2) accommodate heavier industrial uses; Lots C and D (M4) are suited to lighter-format industrial.

What is the zoning of the parcels?

Lots A and B are zoned M2 Heavy Industrial. Lots C and D are zoned M4 Light Industrial. A separate C3 Service Commercial rezoning application is under review for Lots C and D — approval is not guaranteed, and they retain M4 zoning in the meantime.

How far is the site from Prince Rupert and Kitimat?

The site is 137 km from the Port of Prince Rupert (Canada's third-largest container terminal) and 64 km from the Port of Kitimat (LNG Canada, Rio Tinto smelter). CN Rail runs approximately 10 km from the site, and the Northwest Regional Airport is immediately adjacent.

Is municipal water available?

Municipal water has been announced for the area, with availability estimated for early 2028. Well water is common in the interim. Site-specific connection and servicing details to be confirmed during diligence.

Can parcels be leased individually?

Yes. The four parcels can be leased individually or together. Total area is 16.85 acres across four contiguous parcels on Jack Talstra Way — ranging from 1.97 to 6.82 acres each.

What is the status of the C3 rezoning for Lots C and D?

The C3 Service Commercial rezoning is an application under review by the City of Terrace. It is not an approval. Lots C and D retain their M4 Light Industrial zoning while the application is pending.
