The highly anticipated Rockford by Cressey, in the heart of South Surrey’s Ocean Park community, is set to redefine modern living.
Designed with a focus on downsizers and long-term residents, this 63-unit development brings a rare opportunity for those seeking to stay in the area they love and enjoy contemporary conveniences and lifestyle amenities.
Development manager and long-term resident of Ocean Park, Nathan Gurvich describes the project as a response to the community’s desire for quality housing that matches the area's unique character.
"This is one of the first new developments in true Ocean Park in decades," Gurvich says.
"There’s a real excitement because people here want to downsize but remain in the community they know and love. Ocean Park is a tight-knit neighbourhood where people are deeply connected, and there’s a significant need for housing that reflects that."
A thoughtful approach to community living
Rockford by Cressey delivers a high standard of living. The floor plans offer spacious living and residents can look forward to several communal spaces, including a cold plunge pool, hot tub, gym and serene courtyards dubbed “The Secret Garden,” on the fourth floor.
“The concept is about fostering community,” Gurvich explains.
“We’ve created spaces that encourage interaction for inviting friends and connecting with neighbours in shared outdoor areas.
“We want residents to feel that they’re still very much a part of the community while enjoying the comforts of a modern home.”
Rockford's design is rooted in the neighbourhood’s history and charms a village-like community where familiarity runs deep.
"People who know Ocean Park love it. We’ve always referred to it as 'your village,”Gurvich adds.
The development is strategically located within walking distance of local cafés, supermarkets and the beach.
While the project draws from modern architecture, it retains a sense of continuity with the surrounding community.
"Our team has lived and grown up in Ocean Park, so we understand the balance between preserving its character and introducing a needed development," Gurvich notes.
The journey to bring Ocean Park to life hasn’t been without challenges, though community support has been overwhelmingly positive.
“There’s been such a gap in new developments here, and we’re excited to fill that need with a building that genuinely celebrates the area’s history while meeting modern living demands.”
Sales launch in the fall and completion is expected in 2027.
