I am pleased to introduce this remarkable corner site on Commercial Drive in the burgeoning Grandview Woodland area of East Vancouver. The site represents a rare opporunity to develop a 6-storey market residential building just 3 minutes from one of Vancouver’s busiest transit hubs – Commercial/Broadway Skytrain Station.

Adera Development has submitted a rezoning application to the City of North Vancouver for a former TELUS property at 8th and Lonsdale (south of East 11th). The site is triangular in shape and totals 62,543 SF. The proposal would include the retention of portions of the existing TELUS utility building which occupies the easternmost extent of the site; the site would be subdivided and 30 parking spaces would be provided for TELUS‘ use within the new residential development to the West.

The proposal, entitled Lonsdale Cityhomes, includes two new 6-storey residential buildings and a mix of townhouses. Details include:

• 179 units;
• Sizes varying from 600 to 1,900 SF;
• a total density of 2.60 FAR;
• a total CAC of $8,756,020;
• 235 parking spaces

The lot is zoned Residential Medium Density 1 (RM-1) with an Official Community Plan designation of Residential Level 5. The OCP allows for a density of 1.6 FSR and a potential for an additional bonus of up 1.0 FSR in accordance with the Density Bonus and Community Benefits Policy. 

The architect for the project is Integra Architecture.
