Redevelopment of Point Grey Safeway Site Moves Forward

The formal rezoning application has been submitted by Bentall Green Oak for the former West Point Grey Safeway site at 4545 West 10th Avenue.

The 3.0 acre site had been the subject of planning for several years before entering a more detailed preliminary planning phase in 2022.

The proposal for the site is to allow for a mixed-use development comprised of two 6-storey buildings, and a central building with a 17-storey and a 19-storey tower, and includes:

  • 569 rental units;
  • 455 market rental units;
  • 114 moderate income rental units;
  • 41,000 SF of commercial space on the ground floor, including a supermarket;
  • a total density of 3.84 FSR;
  • 444 vehicle parking spaces and 1,107 bicycle spaces.

This application is being considered under the Moderate Income Rental Housing Pilot Program.

The architect for the project is MCMP Architects.
