A rezoning application has been submitted by Prospero & Five Mile Holdings for a site at 245 East 12th Avenue in the Mount Pleasant area.

The 16,000 SF site is located in the ‘Mount Pleasant South Apartment Area – Area ‘A’ [MSAA] subarea of the Broadway Plan.

The proposal is to allow for the development of an 17-storey rental building with a three-storey podium and includes:

• 146 rental units;
• 20% below-market;
• 4,400 SF of retail space on the ground floor;
• A total density of 6.79 FSR; and
• A building height of 181 ft.

This application is being considered under the Broadway Plan.

The architect for the project is Studio One Architecture.

The former Gardenworks site at 705 West 3rd Street in North Vancouver has sold to Western Canadian Properties Group for $14,400,000.

The 24,346 SF site has an approved rezoning application for a 6-storey, 70-unit rental building with a child care facility on the ground floor. The plans had been developed by a joint venture between Omicron and Lotus Pacific, who had originally acquired the site in 2017. The site is essentially ‘shovel ready’.

The sale price equates to $237 per buildable SF based on the approved density of 2.50 FSR.
