Canadian Pacific and DREAM Unlimited Corp. this morning announced an agreement to form DREAM Van Horne Properties (DREAM VHP), a joint venture designed to help the Class I develop its surplus real estate."Since mid-2012, CP has undergone a remarkable business transformation that has generated significant surplus real estate," CP Chief Executive Officer E. Hunter Harrison said in a prepared statement. "The formation of DREAM VHP is the result of a comprehensive selection process to find the right partner with the expertise and vision necessary to unlock the significant long-term shareholder value from those assets."CP's portfolio of surplus real estate properties includes Schiller Park, a 75-acre site in Chicago; Obico, a 74-acre site near Toronto; South Edmonton Yard, a 92-acre site close to downtown Edmonton, Alberta, Canada; and Lucien L'allier, a 3-acre site in downtown Montreal.
