92-Unit Rental Building Planned for East Hastings
PCI Group has filed an application to rezone a property they own at 2805 East Hastings Street, most commonly known as a Burger King for many years. The plan for the 24,902 SF, C-2C1 zoned site is to develop a six-storey rental building with retail on the ground floor. The proposal includes:
- 92 rental apartment units;
- 18,300 SF of CRU retail on the ground floor;
- a density of 3.84 FSR
- a building height of 70.2 ft. ; and
- 97 underground parking spaces.
This application is being considered under the Rental 100 Program and is possible due to the site’s location on a main arterial street. The site has 204 feet of frontage on Hastings.
The application describes the development as follows:
“Located on the Hastings corridor, the project provides for a ground floor containing small scale retail CRU’s with five storeys of residential use consisting of 92 residential rental units, which include 55 one-bedroom units (average size of 544sf), 32 two-bedroom units
(average size of 742sf) and 5 three-bedroom units (average size of 1,000sf).
The project incorporates one and a half levels of underground parking with access at the northeast corner from the lane. A modest size amenity space is located on the sixth floor with an adjacent landscaped outdoor terrace. The elevators provide access to a roof garden.”
The architect for the project is Burrowes Huggins Architects.
PCI Group acquired the site in August 2015 for $11,100,000. It was listed and sold by Casey Weeks and Steve Fame of Colliers.
