6-storey Building Proposed for Revitalized Hollywood Theatre Site

A proposal has been submitted to the City of Vancouver to restore and revive the Hollywood Theatre. 4184 Investments Ltd. has applied for a development permit to add a 6-storey residential building while restoring the adjacent theatre building. The combined site area is 16,743 SF and the site is zoned C-2C which allows a density up to 3.0 FSR and 4-storeys.

The Hollywood Theatre building was originally built in 1935 and closed in 2011 after the building was finally sold by the Fairleigh family. There have been various community efforts to save the theatre since that time.

 The current proposal includes the following:

    • 40 condo units – “The Hollywood Residences”;
    • 6 studios, 13 one-bedrooms, 16 two-bedrooms & 5 three-bedrooms;
    • 4,423 SF of new ground floor retail space;
    • A total density of 3.19 FSR;
    • Building height of 67 ft.;
    • A restored theatre building;
    • Two levels of underground parking accessed from the lane with a total of 47 parking spaces.

Within the application, the owners provide an overview of the plan for the new theatre: “We will re-introduce The Hollywood Theatre back into Vancouver’s consciousness by creating and operating a beautifully renovated, state-of-the-art performing arts centre dedicated to bringing the creative arts to the local community.

As well as live entertainment ticketed events such as live music performances, live theatre, movie screenings, tech events and corporate and private functions we welcome local community producers, non-profit organizations and special interest groups wishing to hold their event at the Hollywood Theatre. This will also include hosting special free to-the public events produced by local producers.”

Full details on their proposed operating plan can be viewed here: http://development.vancouver.ca/3133wbroadway/documents/perspectiveoperatorsbusinessplan.pdf

Under the site’s existing C2-C zoning, the application is “conditional” so it may be permitted; however, it requires the decision of the Development Permit Board. The full development application can be viewed here: http://development.vancouver.ca/3133wbroadway/index.htm

The architect for the project is Marianne Amodio Architecture Studio, Inc.
