Reliance Properties has applied to the City of Vancouver for permission to develop the Northeast corner of Bidwell and Davie with a 22-storey secured market rental building with commercial retail units at grade. The site is 12,970 SF and is zoned C5-A, therefore it does not require rezoning but is a conditional approval that requires the decision of the Development Permit Board. The West End Community Plan includes design guidelines that facilitated this proposal, which includes:

• 108 residential units (all secured market rental);
• total gross floor area of 102,927 SF, including 5,000 SF of commercial retail;
• Total density of 7.4 FSR
• 77 underground parking spaces on 4 levels
• Replacement of 12 existing rental units and older commercial space
