Conceptual Plans Emerge for Langara Gardens

The City of Vancouver is currently holding open houses for the proposed redevelopment of Langara Gardens, a 21-acre apartment complex at Cambie Street and West 57th Avenue owned by Peterson Group in partnership with Concert Properties. Peterson acquired the property in 2009 for $157MM. In 2013, they began a process to create planning policy to redevelop the site, which in its present configuration is predominantly built out as lowrise and townhouse buildings.

Today, initial concept plans are being presented to the public. Some common concepts include:

• retention of the four existing apartment highrises
• new residential buildings varying in height
• retention and enhancement of existing retail
• construction of a new daycare
