Intracorp has submitted a rezoning application for 1110 West 10th Avenue, at the Southwest corner of West 10th and Spruce Street in the Fairview area.

The site is 100′ x 125′ for a total of 12,500 SF. It is currently improved with a 3-storey walkup apartment building with 23 units.

Broadway Plan’s Fairview South – Area A limits the number of towers on a block face to two. With a rezoning proposal already submitted for 1190 West 10th Avenue, this proposal now completes the tower maximum for this block. A variance is requested to allow the density above the Broadway Plan guidelines.

The proposal is to allow for the development of a 20-storey rental building and includes:

• 181 rental units;
• 20% of the units below market;
• a total density of 10.1 FSR;
• A building height of 199 ft. with additional height for rooftop amenity space.

This application is being considered under the Broadway Plan and requests consideration of density in excess of the existing policy.

Third Space Properties has submitted a development application for a site at 10th & Discovery in the Point Grey Village area of Vancouver. The plan for the site includes a new 6-storey rental building with:

• 69 market rental units;
• 6,200 SF of retail space;
• a density of 3.50 FSR;
• a building height of 72 ft.;
• Two levels of underground parking with access off the lane.

Under the site’s existing C-2 zoning, the application is conditional so it may be permitted. However, it requires the decision of the Director of Planning.

From a media release: “Residents will have access to shared indoor and outdoor amenities, including a versatile lounge and coworking area designed to provide space for gathering, studying, and working. The building design seeks to fit into the existing village scale, while serving as a gateway to Point Grey Village. Streetscapes along both 10th Avenue and Discovery Street have been carefully planned, featuring active retail and residential frontages, alongside generous setbacks to encourage comfortable movement, adding to the vibrancy of one of Vancouver’s oldest village centres, Point Grey.”
