We are pleased to announce the sale of 420-440 Mountain Highway, a high density mixed-use development site in the Lynn Creek area of North Vancouver.

The preliminary master plan concept for the 38.5 acre Sapperton Green site has now been approved by the City of New Westminster, allowing the project to move forward to public consultation and eventual rezoning.

Plans to rezone and redevelop the current industrial property first came forward several years ago, with an application by Quadreal for OCP amendment approved in November 2015.

The site sits on the Eastern edge of New Westminster and is adjacent to Braid Skytrain Station. The site is currently improved with older industrial buildings currently used by Amazon.

Details of the proposed development within the preliminary master plan include:

• 13 to 14 residential towers with midrises and townhouses
• Approx. 3,700 units (half condo / half rental)
• 3,400,000 SF of residential space
• 800,000 to 1,150,000 SF of office space (mostly along Braid near the station)
• 150,000 SF of retail space
• 35,000 SF community centre facility
• a central greenway running through the site in addition to a road network
• park dedication equal to approx. 12% of the gross site area
• a CAC to be determined

The first phase of the project would occur on the South and East portions of the site, the subsequent three phases would require demolition of the existing Amazon building.

It is anticipated that the rezoning application would be sent to public hearing in the Spring of 2018.

We are pleased to introduce this 58′ x 135′ corner lot in the Cambie Corridor Phase 3 Plan area. The lot will likely be rezoned in early 2018 to allow townhouses. Contact us for further details.

IRCA Group is seeking development permit approval for a proposed redevelopment of four single family lots located at the southeast corner of Crown Street and Mountain Highway in Lynn Creek Town Centre area of North Vancouver.

The plan for the 17,4000 SF site calls for a new 6-storey building that includes:

• 47 residential units
• 13 one-bedrooms, 27 two-bedrooms and 7 three-bedrooms;
• a total density of 2.50 FSR ;
• 58 underground parking spaces on two levels

A development application has been submitted by Rendition Developments to the City of Vancouver for permission to develop a 99′ x 122′ site at 224 West 8th Avenue in the Mount Pleasant area. The site is currently improved with an old two-storey office building.

This area has seen a slew of applications since the I-1 zone was changed in 2013 to permit more general office use to a density of 3.0 FSR.

The plan for this site is for a 4-storey, mixed-use building consisting of:

• Manufacturing uses on the first storey and mezzanine above;
• General Office uses on the second through fourth storeys;
• a total density of 3.0 FSR;
• a total building size of 36,258 SF;
• two levels of underground parking, providing 51 parking spaces

Under the site’s existing I-1 zoning, the application is “conditional” so it may be permitted; however, it requires the decision of the Director of Planning.

The architect for the project is Mallen Gowing Berzins Architecture.

The site was acquired by Rendition in February 2017 for $9,500,000 or $262 per buildable SF.
