Thind Properties has submitted a rezoning application to convert the office component of their newly constructed ‘Highline’ project from office space to hotel.

Highline’s construction was completed in late 2023 and includes a 48-storey, 336-unit condo building with 10 floors of office space at the base of the tower.

The proposal is to convert the 10-storeys of office space to a hotel with 159 hotel units, and a ground-level hotel lobby. To achieve a generously sized hotel lobby, two of the three existing ground-level retail units are proposed to be consolidated with the existing commercial lobby with a hotel lounge, concierge, business centre, and liquor primary lobby bar establishment. The remaining commercial retail unit, at the corner of Beresford and the lane, is proposed to be a liquor primary pub or food primary restaurant which can work in partnership with the hotel operator to provide food and liquor services to hotel guests and patrons.

An amendment to the Metrotown Downtown Plan is proposed to facilitate the hotel uses under the C2 zoning.
