A rezoning application has been submitted for a 69′ x 127′ corner lot at Cambie and West 35th Avenue. The site at 485 West 35th Avenue sold in December 2017 for $8,500,000, or $394 per buildable SF.

The proposal is for a rezoning based upon the Cambie Corridor Plan, and consists of a 6-storey market residential building over one level of underground parking and includes:

• 17 condo units;
• a total density of 2.46 FSR;
• a building height of 61 ft.; and
• 21 underground parking spaces and 28 bicycle spaces.

The architect for the project is GUD Group.

A development permit application has been submitted for a site at 1394 Robson Street, the former location of the Robstonstrasse Hotel, acquired by Asia Standard in July 2018 for $24,780,000.

The site falls within the West End Community Plan, allowing up to 8.75 FSR. The Zoning for the property is C-6, a West End Commercial District classification which permits a maximum gross floor area equal to 2.6 times the site area. For the full density the site reequires a minimum frontage of 39.6 meters.

An office and retail buildings is proposed for the site, details include:

• 14,771 SF of retail on floors 1-3;
• 9,966 SF of office on floors 4 & 5;
• A total density of 2.86 FSR;
• a building height of 65 feet;
• one level of underground parking accessed from the lane.

Under the site’s existing C-6 zoning, the application is “conditional” so it may be permitted; however, it requires the decision of the Development Permit Board.
