87-Unit Rental Building Proposed at 5079–5137 Ash Street in South Cambie

A rezoning application has been filed by Pennyfarthing Developments to redevelop 5079–5137 Ash Street, just off Cambie Street, proposing a 6-storey residential rental building on a site currently zoned R1-1.

Details of the proposal include:

  • 87 rental units
  • FSR: 3.27
  • Height: 67 ft.

Pennyfarthing is familiar with this block. The developer previously secured rezoning approval at 5079–5161 Ash Street in 2023 for the Slate & Ash project, a larger assembly that included 5161 Ash Street. The current application covers only the southern three lots of that original assembly — 5079, 5111, and 5137 — suggesting either a reconfigured development strategy or phased execution of the broader Ash Street holdings.

The architect for the project is SHIFT Architecture.
