Rental Apartment Building Proposed Adjacent Phibbs Exchange

Darwin Construction has applied to the District of North Vancouver to rezone 4 single family lots at 1561-1583 Oxford Street. The proposal is for 107 rental apartment units and 2,168 sq ft of commercial floorspace in a 6 storey building over 96 parking stalls. The proposed density is 3.35 FSR, which exceeds the 2.5 FSR medium density floor space envisioned in the District’s Official Community Plan.

The site located at the south end of the Lower Lynn Town Centre adjacent to Phibbs Exchange. The Lower Lynn Area Plan is expected to be adopted later in 2013.
