MYIE Group is forging ahead with plans for a site in the Bridgeport Area of Richmond that has been on the drawing board. They have now applied for a development permit for the proposed International Trade Centre. The project was originally conceived several years ago and recieved rezoning in 2013.
The site is a triangular, 71,350 SF piece of land at 8451 Bridgeport Road. The proposed uses include general retail, restaurant, hotel and office. The plan includes:
- A total density of 3.0 FAR (215,000 SF)
- Three towers of 9, 12 (office) and 14-storeys (hotel) with a common five-storey podium including retail
- Approximately 100 hotel rooms (Opus Hotel, managed by Trilogy)
In an effort to capitalize on the overwhelming success of Aberdeen Square, the office space will be strata-titled and sold. The developer is taking registrations through Magnum Projects.
A development application has been submitted for a prominent corner. A new 3-storey building is in the planning stage at the Northeast corner of Burrard and West 4th Avenue, currently home to Comor Sports. The proposal for the 93′ x 113′, C-2B zoned site includes:
- retail use on Level 1 (Comor would be the tenant)
- office use on Levels 2 and 3
- 3 levels of underground parking
- total floor area of 26,244 SF (2.5 FSR)
