Bastion Development has submitted a rezoning application for their site at Arbutus & West 10th Avenue for a 20-storey condo tower. The site at 2120-2150 West 10th Avenue is 17,248 SF and located just one block from the Arbutus Station.

A previous proposal for the site in 2021 was for a 5-storey condo building with 42 units under existing zoning.

The project is the first application under the Broadway Plan seeking 100% condo use. Most sub-areas of the Plan require rental, or a mix of condo and social housing. This particular sub-area, known as Kitsilano Arbutus Broadway Sub area C, allows for 100% condo with a CAC payment.

Details of Bastion’s proposal for the site is a 20-storey tower that includes:

• 86 condo units;
  • 71 two-bedrooms, 12 three-bedrooms & 3 townhouses;
• 3,900 SF of retail space on the ground floor;
• a total density of 6.93 FSR;
• A building height of 217 ft.
• 144 parking stalls on 4 underground levels.

The rezoning will require a CAC payment, yet to be determined.

The architect for the project is Arcadis.

• Ten towers up to 60-storeys in height;

• Commercial space for 1,750 jobs;
• a childcare facility

Bosa Properties has submitted their revised rezoning application for 1706-1738 Alberni Street in the West End.

The site has had two previous applications/design iterations, with the first in 2020 and a subsequent design in 2021. The two designs had featured international architects and were presumably costly builds.

In July 2024, Vancouver Council approved amendments to the City’s view cone policy that relaxed a view cone (20.1) that previously restricted the Alberni site. Now, the building heights have been increased.

The proposal for the site is two mixed-use buildings at 44-storeys (east tower) and 41-storeys (west tower) above a 6-storey podium. The more conventional proposal includes:

• 236 condo units (west tower);
• 377 rental units (east tower);
• 5,000 SF of retail space;
• A total density of 16.11 FSR (east tower) and 14.60 FSR (west tower); and
• Building heights of 385 ft. with additional height for rooftop amenity space.

This application is being considered under the West End Rezoning Policy.

The architect for the project is Henriquez Partners.
