We are pleased to introduce this 14,841 SF site in the rarely available Dundarave area of West Vancouver. The site is currently improved with an older 4-storey strata building. The existing RM-2 zoning allows for 1.75 FSR density and up to 20-storeys height. 26,000 SF buildable.

Strand Development has submitted an application to rezone a 44,372 SF triangular site at the corner of Victoria Drive and Stainsbury Avenue for a new rental apartment project.  The site is two former light industrial lots that are zoned MC-1. The proposal includes:

• A 6-storey rental apartment building
• A total of 155 market rental apartment units, including six live-work units;
• 43 studios, 44 one-bedrooms, 41 two-bedrooms and 21 three-bedrooms
• A floor area of 108,912 SF;
• A density of 2.46 FSR;
• A building height of 61 ft;
• 101 residential parking spaces and one Class B loading space; and
• 194 Class A and six Class B bicycle parking spaces.

The application also involves the reconfiguration of lots by relocating a lane and consolidating two lots previously separated by a lane.

The application is being considered under the Secured Market Rental Housing (Rental 100) Program.

A development application has been filed for a new laneway infill apartment building on a 66′ lot in the West End. 1176 Burnaby Street, owned by Lantern Properties, has an existing 11-storey, 41-unit apartment building known as Newport Apartments.

The laneway apartment application is for the rear of the property, currently a surface parking area. Details include:

• 9 rental apartments
• building height of 47 ft
• Total area of 6,852 SF
• 7 underground parking stalls accessed off the lane

The site is zoned RM-5A and the West End Community Plan, adopted in 2014, amended the RM zones to allow infill apartments on laneways where there is sufficient room for them.

Above ground construction efforts continue at the Amazing Brentwood, the redevelopment of Brentwood Town Centre Mall in Burnaby by Shape Properties. The project is one of the largest mixed-use development currently under construction in Metro Vancouver.

The project, which broke ground on its first phases in 2015, will feature 11 towers and over 6,000 units once complete. It will also include a considerable new retail component with over 250 new stores.

The first 3 towers have now sold out, representing about 1,400 units.
