FDG Property Management has submitted a rezoning proposal for 161-165 E. Keith Rd. to allow the construction of a 93-unit 16-level residential building with 52 strata units, and 41 purpose built rental units secured in perpetuity and involving a density transfer/sale from adjacent City owned lands. The lands under consideration include Site B (12,598 SF) and the adjacent City Parcel Site A (7,600 SF) which have a combined area of 20,198 SF. This combined site shown below.

The existing rental building on the site, Park Lane Manor, was constructed in 1954 and has 12 units. As such, it is one of the older purpose-built rental buildings remaining in the City and is in relatively poor condition. It will be replaced by this proposal.

I am pleased to have acted on behalf of the Vendor and Purchaser in the sale of this West End apartment building with laneway housing potential.

Contact me if you’d like to learn more about what’s selling in the West End and about what the new West End Community Plan means for existing apartment properties.

The owners of an papartment building on Oak have applied for a development application to redevelop an existing apartment property they own at 2975 Oak Street (at West 14th). The proposal is permitted under the existing RM-3A zoning, but required City approval. The plan includes:

• Heritage designation of the existing structure
• 50 market rental units
• A total density of 2.8 FSR

Bogner Development Group is proposing to rezone a former Church site on West Boulevard (2095 West 43rd Avenue) from RM-3A  to CD-1 to allow a 6-storey rental apartment building under the Rental 100 program that includes:

• 56 secured market rental units;
• a density of 3.25 FSR
• commercial uses at grade; and
• 29 underground parking spaces.
