Redevelopment of West Van Rental Site Could Include 21-Storey Tower

The preliminary proposal has been submitted for redevelopment of the Shoreland Apartment site at 2190 Bellevue Avenue. The redevelopment had been rumoured last year and was thought to include a concurrent application and demolition of the “Pink Palace” building known as Villa Maris at 2222 Bellevue, although the application does not anticipate immediate redevelopment of Villa Maris at this time.

The Shoreland is a 62-unit, 11-storey rental apartment building that was built in 1963 by the current owners. The site is 29,185 SF in size.

The current zoning for the site is RM2 which allows up to 20 storeys in height.

The owners have put forth two potential redevelopment options for Council to consider:

  • Option one: 
  • 6 storey non-market building on the west side of the site and a 17 storey market building on the east side of the site
  • 186 rental units (24 non-market rental units and 162 market rental units).
  • 5.20 FAR density
  • Option two: 
  • 6 storey non-market building on the west side of the site and a 21 storey market building on the east side of the site
  • 230 rental units (24 non-market rental units and 206 market rental units). 
  • 6.24 FAR density

Both options include a 6-storey building with affordable units dedicated for “essential service workers”.

A tenant relocation assistance strategy is proposed to be implemented which includes the Villa Maris site located at 2222 Bellevue Avenue. The proposal does not include redevelopment of the Villa Maris site.

The preliminary development proposal will be presented to Council on June 22, 2020, to determine if the proposal can proceed to public consultation prior to the adoption of the Ambleside Municipal Town Centre Local Area Plan.

The architect for the project is James Cheng.
