The formal rezoning application by Concert Properties and Peterson Group for Langara Gardens has been released publicly.

A rezoning policy statement for the 20.8 acre site had been completed in 2018 and the full rezoning application had been anticipated since that time.

The proposal is for the redevelopment of the site with buildings between 3 and 36 storeys. The existing four 18-storey towers would be retained. The proposal includes:

• Approximately 430 social housing units;
• Approximately 760 rental units (including 85 below-market units);
• Approximately 1,430 strata units;
• 3.1 FSR total density (2.7M SF);
• A 69-space childcare facility;
• Public open spaces, Cambie Park upgrades, a new 1-acre park.

The application is being considered under the Langara Gardens Policy Statement and the Issues Report: Direction for Intensification of Large Sites to include Moderate Income Rental Housing.

The full rezoning application can be viewed here.

The architect for the project is James Cheng Architects.

The site was originally sold by Colliers to Peterson Group in 2009 for $157,000,000. Concert Properties was brought on as a 50% partner in 2015.

A development application by Pelagos Properties has been approved by the District of West Vancouver for 2711 Rodgers Creek Place, in the Rodgers Creek/Mulgrave area of West Vancouver above the Upper Levels Highway.

The proposal for the 37,000 SF steeply sloped site includes a 5-storey condo building and:

• 19 units;
  • 1 one-bedrooms, 5 two-bedrooms & 13 three-bedrooms;
• a total density of 1.0 FAR;
• three levels of underground parking with 35 stalls.

The architect for the project is Folio Studio Architecture.

The site was acquired in 2019 for $11,000,000, or $300 per buildable SF based on the application.

A preliminary rezoning application has been submitted for a 30,000 SF site near Edgemont Village in North Vancouver.

The site at 3712-3718 Edgemont Boulevard is currently improved with a four-plex built in 1951 and designed by Fred Hollingsworth.

A previous application for the site included preservation of the existing heritage structure and the addition of 25-30 units but the proposal did not proceed.

The OCP designates this site Residential Level 3: Attached Residential, which permits a density up to 0.8 FAR.

The new proposal for the site includes:

• 21 two-storey townhouses;
• a total density of 0.8 FAR;
• 41 underground parking spaces.

The architect for the project is Robert Blaney.

The site was listed for sale for $9,800,000 and sold earlier this year for $7,000,000 of $293 per buildable SF based on the application for townhouses.
