398 Lowrise Units Planned for Burquitlam Site

Strand Development has submitted a rezoning application fora 3.5 acre site comprised of 14 single family lots and a motel in the 700 Block of Clarke Road in the Burquitlam area of Coquitlam. The proposal calls to rezone from the existing single family and commercial zoning to RM-3 to allow a new condo development under the Burquitlam-Lougheed Neighbourhood Plan, in which the site is designated for Medium Density Multi-family residential.

The site was sold by Morgan Iannone and Casey Weeks of Colliers in 2017.

The proposed plan is for three 6-storey condo buildings that include:

• 398 units;
• 94 one-bedrooms, 246 two-bedrooms & 58 three-bedrooms;
• a total density of 2.30 FAR;
• 29,848 SF of amenity space;
• 584 underground parking spaces on two levels.

The architect for the project is Rositch Hemphill Architects.
