Plans for a rental building in Kerrisdale that were submitted earlier this year, have now been withdrawn.

Bogner Development Group had proposed rezoning on the church site for a 6-storey, 56-unit rental building. A notificaiton on the City’s website indicates that Bogner is withdrawing the proposal:

“After review of the public feedback provided through the application process, the applicant has decided to withdraw rezoning application for a 6-storey secured market rental building on this site. The applicant is now working with staff to review potential options for the site.”

The rezoning would have been one of the first under the Interim Policy for Affordable Housing, and at 6-storeys, would’ve also been taller than most proposals under existing zoning in Kerrisdale.

Here is what was proposed:

Rize Alliance‘s plan for two condo towers in Metrotown will take another step forward this month. “Gold House” is a 490-unit project consisting of a 41-storey tower and a 26-storey tower over a commercial and townhouse podium.

The 87,505 SF site is located at the corner of Beresford Street and McKay Avenue. The total proposed density is 6.3 FAR. The unit types are mostly studios and 2 bedrooms.

The project also includes 5,181 SF of retail on the ground floor, and 19,799 SF of office space on floors 2-5.
