A rezoning application has been filed for a three single family lot land assembly at 5469-5507 Willow Street. The site is directly adjacent the Oakridge Transit Centre site which sold earlier this year and anticipates over 1,000 units.

The proposed rezoning for the 21,600 SF, RS-1 zoned property on Willow is for a stacked townhouse residential development that includes:

• Three, 3-storey buildings over a single underground parkade;
• 20 residential units;
• a building height of 37 ft. from grade;
• a total density of 1.20 FSR; and
• 30 underground parking spaces and 25 bicycle spaces.

The application is being considered under the Oakridge Langara Policy Statement.

The architect for the project is Yamamoto Architecture.

Conwest Developments has applied to the City of Vancouver for permission to develop on a 6,039 SF site at the Southwest corner of Quebec and East 4th Avenue in the Mount Pleasant area of Vancouver. Plans include a 3-storey mixed use building consisting of:

• Manufacturing uses on the first floor and mezzanine above;
• General Office uses on the second and third floors;
• an underground garage providing 15 parking spaces;
• total density of 2.92 FSR;
• peak height of 61 ft.

The site is zoned I-1, a zoning which was changed in 2014 to allow greater density for office use.

The architect for the project is MGBA Architecture.
