Here is another example of the type of gentle densification that the City of Vancouver should be encouraging more of. An application has been made to develop a stacked townhouse project at 2115 East 33rd Avenue in the Norquay Village area. The site comprises three single family lots which are being developed into 12 units under the RM-7 zoning. The architect is Wilson Chang. Details include:

• 12 units with 4 lockoff units
• 10 two bedrooms and 2 three bedroom units
• Unit sizes of 967 SF to 1,177 SF
• 8 surface parking spaces on the lane

Here is a construction update for a project that many people aren’t aware of outside of the media buzz surrounding its work stoppage earlier this year. The New Jubilee House is a new 13-storey, 162-unit affordable housing project located at the corner of Richards and Helmcken. The project is replacing an existing 87-unit building located across the street, which will subsequently be replaced by a condo tower by Brenhill Development. The project was designed by GBL Architects.

I am pleased to announce the sale of 1609 Cypress Street, a 16-unit apartment building in Kits. The building was sold to a local investor for $4,400,000.
