Jameson Development has submitted a new rezoning application for the site they own at 1649 East Broadway in East Vancouver.
A previous rezoning application was approved in May 2018 for a 10-storey condo/rental building (50/50) under the Grandview Woodland Community Plan. Two years later, Jameson has revised the project for extra height in exchange for a 100% rental project (20% below market).
The proposed amendment would allow for two additional storeys to accommodate a 12-storey mixed use development and includes:
- 114 rental units (increased from 85 units);
- 91 market rental units and 23 below-market rental units;
- 12 studios, 60 one-bedrooms, 36 two-bedrooms & 6 three-bedrooms;
- A building height of 120 ft., (increased from 109 ft).;
- A total density of 5.00 FSR (increased from 4.0 FSR);
- 70 underground parking spaces and 217 bicycle spaces.
This application is being considered under the Grandview-Woodland Community Plan and the Below-Market Rental Housing Policy for Rezonings.
The architect for the project is IBI Group.
