A rezoning application has been filed for a 46,563 SF site at 445 Kingsway in the Mount Pleasant area which would allow rezoning from the existing C-2 zoning to allow a 6-storey mixed-use building that includes:

• 109 secured market rental apartment units;
• Commercial use (car dealership) at grade;
• A density of 3.69 FSR;
• A building height of 75.5 ft.; and
• 90 residential parking stalls, 209 dealership parking stalls, 4 loading spaces and 156 bike parking spaces.

The application is being considered under the Secured Market Rental Housing (Rental 100) Program.

The site is currently improved with Desination Hyundai, a single-storey auto dealership. The renderings appear to show that Destination Honda will be the new tenant. The architect for this proposal is FNDA Architecture.

Seaspan is seeking development permit approval to construct an office building to provide the necessary office facilities for their ship building operations at the foot of Pemberton Avenue in North Vancouver.

The new central facility will house the office component of its ship building and marine service operations. The location on the site offers both overview of the shipyards, and easy access for staff moving back and forth between on-site facilities. The proposal includes:

•  a new 4-storey building with offices, meeting rooms, change rooms, and a canteen for the Seaspan staff
• Total floor area of 84,000 SF
• 122 parking spaces on an adjacent lot

In 2011, Seaspan was awarded a contract to build 17 non-combat ships on the adjacent site.

• 56 residential units;
• a building height of 50 ft.;
• a density of 1.76 FSR; and
• 74 underground parking spaces and 76 bicycle parking spaces.

This rezoning application is being considered under the Cambie Corridor Plan, and the architect is Shift Architecture.
