Peterson Group has submitted their formal rezoning application to the City of Burnaby for 6645-6707 Dow Avenue in the Maywood Neighbourhood of Metrotown.

The 112,424 SF site is a five-lot assembly designated RM-5s and RM-4 under the Metrotown Downtown Plan which allow for high density residential development.

The subject properties are each improved with an older two to three storey rental apartment building which were constructed between the years of 1955 and 1964. In total, there are 112 existing rental units across the five sites proposed for redevelopment.

The proposed development for the site is for two condo towers (49 & 41-storeys), with a commercial podium, and a 6-storey non-market rental housing building.

Details include:

• 770 condos;
• 132 rental units (median market, inclusionary & replacement);

A preliminary rezoning application has been submitted by Edgar Developments for the 7.2 acre Columbia Square Plaza Shopping Centre site in New Westminster.

The site at 88 Tenth Street is a large triangular shaped lot located in the Downtown neighbourhood bounded by Royal Avenue and Columbia and Tenth Streets. It is located about 100 meters from the New Westminster Skytrain Station.

The existing strip mall includes Save-On-Foods, BC Liquor Store, several banks and Pharmasave.

The site is designated Mixed Use High Density within the Downtown Community Plan and the general form of development is expected to be tower residential with a mix of retail, office and residential podiums interfacing with grade.

The proposal seeks to establish a master plan that would facilitate a multi-phased high density development that includes:

• 6 to 8 residential towers;
• replacement of existing retail;
• minimum 120,000 SF of office space;
• between 1.7-3.0 Million SF of residential space;
• 2,200 to 4,000 units;
• 10% inclusionary units;
• community and public spaces.

The application is still preliminary and requires Council direction to authorize planning staff to work with the owners to refine the proposal before a formal rezoning application will be considered.

The site was acquired by Edgar in 2022 for $136,000,000.
