The first phases of Ledingham McAllister’s Southgate Village project are moving forward through the rezoning process, with City of Burnaby council approval this week to go to public hearing.
Ledingham acquired the 48-acre former distribution centre in 2012 and received approval of a multi-phase master plan for the site in 2015, including 5.9 Million square feet of density (2.86 FAR). The master plan consists of five neighbourhoods, and the first two towers will be located in two of these neighbourhoods, each of which will be constructed in several phases.
The first two tower phases include:
“Precedence” (Gateway Neighbourhood)
- a 32-storey apartment tower and 4-storey lowrise
- 351 units
- 94 one-bedrooms, 205 two-bedrooms, 16 three-bedrooms
- tower height of 330.5 ft
- 401 underground parking spaces
“Southgate Community Island 1 & 2” (Island Neighbourhood)
- a 30-storey tower and 4-storey lowrise
- 282 units
- 69 one-bedrooms, 207 two-bedrooms, 6 three-bedrooms
- a small park
- 310 parking spaces
A new east-west public road will be built as part of this phase and will connect 18th Street to 12th Avenue.
