An amendment to the CD-1 (499) by-law for Parcel 11 in the River District, increasing permitted height from 12 to 15 storeys (37.5 m to 48 m) to allow above-grade structured parking in response to high groundwater conditions that make deep underground excavation impractical. No change to overall floor area.

Total floor area is 110,800 sq. m with buildings reaching up to 137 m in height. Designed by Boniface Oleksiuk Politano Architects.

A proposed 15-storey rental building with 140 units (20% below-market) mid-block between Cambie and Yukon Streets, within 400 m of King Edward Station. The application proposes an FSR of 5.89 and a height of 45.6 m, with additional height qualifying under the Rental Development Relief Program.
Applicant: Bonnis Development Yukon St. Inc.
A proposed 32-storey mixed-use tower with 196 market rental units and ground-floor retail at the corner of Broadway and Yukon Street, 180 m from Broadway–City Hall Station. The application proposes an FSR of 22.0 on a 766 sq. m lot, with a building height of 104 m. Staff are supporting a height above the Broadway Plan’s standard 30-storey limit due to the site’s shallow lot depth.
Applicant: PC Urban
A proposed 26-storey mixed-use rental building in Fairview with 304 units (20% below-market) and ground-floor commercial, replacing an existing 65-unit rental building. FSR increases from 3.0 to 6.9 and height from 27.5 m to 81 m. The 26-storey height is supported under the Broadway Plan due to the site’s frontage exceeding 45.7 m. Designed by Francl Architecture.
1618–1680 East Hastings Street
Applicant: Urban Native Youth Association and City of Vancouver
An Indigenous-led mixed-use project at East Hastings and Commercial Drive proposing 157 social housing units in a 23-storey tower, with the lower four storeys housing a renewed Urban Native Youth Association centre, a Nicola Valley Institute of Technology campus, and a 44-space Indigenous childcare facility to be owned by the City. The application proposes an FSR of 5.9 and a height of 81 m.
Applicant: Wesgroup
A proposed 12-storey mass timber mixed-use building with 97 market rental units and ground-floor retail at the corner of Cambie and West 59th Avenue, representing the first application under the City’s Mass Timber Policy for Rezonings. FSR of 4.26 and height of 48 m. No below-market rental requirement applies, reflecting the premium cost of mass timber construction.
Applicant: Vertex DC Ventures Inc. and Fastmark
A proposed 26-storey mixed-use tower with 250 rental units (20% below-market) and ground-floor commercial near Commercial–Broadway Station, at an FSR of 10.9 and a height of 83 m. Staff are recommending referral back rather than approval, as the building above the 10th storey falls within the Trout Lake public view cone (View 27.1), and the City’s view cone policy is currently under review.
807–819 Hornby Street & 908–948 Robson Street
Applicant: Reliance Properties
A proposed 35-storey mixed-use tower at the corner of Robson and Hornby Streets in Downtown Vancouver, with 176 strata units and 160 hotel rooms above an 11-storey commercial podium with ground-floor retail.
