Details Emerge for BlueSky’s Two Tower West End Project
BlueSky Properties has submitted their formal rezoning applications for two linked sites across the street from each other on the East side of Thurlow Street on Harwood.
The two towers would be 32 and 33-storeys respectively, comprise a total of 300 units and would be rezoned from the current RM-5A zoning to a CD zoning per the West End Community Plan, which allows for 300 ft. towers between Thurlow and Burrard.
Details for each site include:
1065 Harwood Street and 1332 Thurlow Street (North Site)
The proposal is for a 33-storey residential building including:
- 59 market residential units on floors 18-33;
- 98 social housing units on floors 2-18;
- 64 one-bedrooms, 30 two-bedrooms and 49 three-bedrooms;
- a total density of 10.46 FSR;
- five levels of underground parking with 157 vehicle parking stalls and 197 bicycle parking spaces; and
- a building height of 300 ft.
