For now we can’t illustrate this Gastown project. The City of Vancouver’s website has a notification letter to residents that describes the project, but unusually, no accompanying illustrations, elevations or further details. (Quite how they review the project to comment on it remains a mystery). If the Urban Design Panel get to see it we’ll add an image.
The façade of 151 Water St would be retained, and 157 Water Street would be redeveloped. The project would end up with six floors of office over retail and restaurant uses, and the letter says the project would be 95 feet high. Musson Cattell Mackey are the architects. The Gastown Historic Area Planning Committee will review the scheme this week – they have a few more details; the total space would be 105,426 square feet and their notes say it would be 103 feet high to the top of the mechanical room.
