We are pleased to present for sale 6417 Bruce Street in West Vancouver, B.C. This is a 12,200 SF residential/mixed-use development opportunity in the heart of Horseshoe Bay’s village area.
The Horseshoe Bay Local Area Plan and Design Guidelines were adopted by West Vancouver Council in 2021, and only a handful of properties benefit from the ‘Village Heart’ designation. This is a great opportunity to build up to 4-storeys, 2.0 FAR (approx. 24,000 SF gross buildable) on a flat site with 100 ft. of frontage.
The existing parking lot also generates excellent income for a purchaser while working through the design and approval process.

PC Urban and Hines have submitted their development application for 123 East 6th Avenue, at the Northeast corner of East 6th and Quebec in Mount Pleasant.
The proposal is for a 12-storey mixed-use office and industrial building (named ‘T3 Mount Pleasant’) within the I-1B zoning guidelines. Schedule and comprises 196,351 sf of floor area. The project also consists of the relocation, designation and conservation of an existing two-storey 10,632 sf SFU Annex heritage building for the purpose of delivering to the City to operate as an arts centre.
The project will be constructed using a mass timber superstructure and designed according to Hines’ proprietary “T3 system” which combines timber, transit and technology.

196,351 SF of gross floor area;
A total density of 6.60 FSR;
A proposed height of 150 ft.;
Three levels of underground parking, having vehicular access from the lane.
Pinnacle International is seeking City of Burnaby Council approval to allow a density transfer to facilitate the development of both their Austin-Gatineau Place property, and a nearby site also owned by Pinnacle, called Carrigan Court.
The 6.2 acre Austin-Gatineau site is located in the Lougheed Town Centre Plan area. It was acquired by Pinnacle from Shape Properties in 2018.
Following the initial proposal, a number of issues were identified relating to both the ability to accommodate the site’s allocated density and density associated with the Rental Use Zoning policy which came into place in 2020. It was determined that the site could not accommodate the non-market rental density. Also, the British Columbia Transportation and Finance Authority (BCTFA) would not permit any encumbrances over adjacent Provincial-owned land, which had a significant impact on the siting of one of the Austin-Gatineau Site’s towers identified in the Master Plan.
In 2021, the City of Burnaby a Density Transfer Policy allowing density transfers to accommodate non-market rental housing on concurrent rezonings for nearby sites.
As Pinnacle is the owner of a nearby 3.40 acre property at 3846 Carrigan Court, an existing 141-unit rental apartment property that they are now proposing to transfer the inclusionary rental from the Austin-Gatineau site to a redeveloped Carrigan Court.
The revised proposals for both sites are as follows:
Austin-Gatineau Site
Four condo towers of 80, 76, 73 & 50-storeys in height, each atop commercial podiums;
Three phases;
2,474 condo units;
a total floor area of of 2.3 Million SF;
a total density of 11.82 FAR.
Carrigan Court
Three residential towers of 33-storeys, 25-storeys & 23-storeys;
Two phases;
900 total residential units;
546 rental units including:
141 replacement rental units;
405 inclusionary units transferred from the Austin-Gatineau site;
a total floor area of 734,810 SF;
a total density of 4.95 FAR.
A previous version of the proposal that envisioned 3-towers.
