Market Spotlight: 1819 West 5th Avenue
By ChangingCity
This remarkably bold architectural proposal is a residential over retail building for Burrard Street – specifically the northwest corner of Burrard and West 5th Avenue. The architects are Yamamoto Architecture, and the proposal currently has 25 units. The Urban Design Panel will no doubt get to weigh in on the project soon, which is not a rezoning, and so can proceed reasonably fast if it doesn’t hit any hurdles along the way.

S-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o ugly!
This architectural example does nothing to complement the unique character of Kitsilano.
Maybe they can find a place for it on Point Grey Road? Since the removal of traffic there, at least it won’t amplify all the noise..
And why a 6-story building when the area is only zoned for 3-story?
There will be a fight over this one.
