Anthem Properties has submitted rezoning applications for two sites in the Metrotown area of Burnaby. If the applications are approved at Council, they will move forward to public hearing next month.

The proposals are:

6444 Willingdon Avenue & 4241 Maywood Street

The plan for this 65,486 SF site located at the comer of Willingdon Avenue and Maywood Street is a new 42-storey highrise, with townhouses fronting Maywood Street and Cassie Avenue, and a 3-storey non-market rental building. The site is in the Maywood neighbourhood and is utilizing the RM5s and RMS Multiple Family Residential Districts and Metrotown Downtown Plan as guidelines.

Details of this proposal include:

  • 378 units;
    • 348 condo units;
    • 30 non-market rental units (New Vista Society);
  • a total density of 5.32 FAR;
  • a total tower height of 430 ft.;
  • 470 underground parking spaces.

 

 


6075 Wilson Avenue

This site is located at the comer of Wilson Avenue and Central Boulevard and totals 62,641 SF. The Metrotown Downtown Plan identifies this neighbourhood as a high density neighbourhood with a garden-like setting that is defined by its relationships to Central Park, Kingsway, the BC Parkway and Patterson SkyTrain station. The rezoning policy for the site is based upon the RM5s and RM3 designations.

The proposed development plan is for a single 45-storey condo tower oriented towards the comer of Central Boulevard and Wilson Avenue with a 4-storey townhouse podium oriented towards Wilson Avenue and a 4-storey non-market rental housing component oriented towards Central Boulevard.

Details include:

  • 379 units;
    • 347 condo units;
    • 32 non-market rental units;
  • a total density of 5.37 FAR;

438-Room Hotel Planned for West Broadway

A rezoning application has been submitted to the City of Vancouver to rezone the site at 878-898 West Broadway, between Laurel Street and Willow Street, currently improved with an older 117-room 7-storey hotel Park Inn & Suites, which was built in 1965. The owner of the property is Dingye Property Group Ltd.

The proposal consists of the construction of two high-rise hotel buildings (13 and 11 storey, respectively) including a mixed-use podium, to be comprised of:

    • 28,839 SF of retail use at grade;
    • 438 hotel units (258 short-term and 180 long-term stay);
    • a proposed density of 8.38 FSR;
    • a building height of 142 ft; and
    • 485 underground car parking spaces, 35 bicycle spaces, and on-site loading.

The application describes the rationale for the project: “The existing structures on the site represent an underutilization of land for this strategic location. With the expansion of the Vancouver General Hospital and the more recent announcements regarding an expansion of a rapid transit line along the Broadway Corridor, the timing for the rezoning of the site to build on the demand for new retail and hotel uses in the area is now.”

The rezoning is being considered under the Metro Core Job and Economy Land Use Plan.

The architect for the project is Arno Matis Architecture.
