A development application has been submitted by Landa Global for their site at the Southeast corner of West 10th and Alma Street. The 23,300 SF, C-2 zoned site is now vacant and was previously an Esso gas station before Landa bought the site in 2015 for $18 Million (or $313 per buildable SF).

The plan for the site is a 4-storey, mixed-use commercial and residential building that includes:

• 32 market residential units;
• A total density of 2.48 FSR;
• A building height of 57,762 SF;
• 7 retail units at grade;
• 80 underground parking on two levels accessed from the rear lane.

Under the site’s existing C-2 zoning, the application is “conditional” so it may be permitted; however, it requires the decision of the Director of Planning.

The architect for the project is Rafii Architects.

A development application has been submitted for a 4,659 SF lot on the West side of Cambie between West 18th and West 19th Avenues.

The site is currently occupied by Pronto Restaurant and sister bar Prontino. The imminent closure of the restaurant was featured in Global News.

The development proposal involves the development of a new 4-storey, mixed commercial and residential building consisting of:

• Dental office on the ground floor;
• 5 residential units above;
• 1 level of underground parking, having vehicular access from Tupper Street;
• A proposed building height of 44 ft;
• A total density of 2.16 FSR.

Under the site’s existing C-2 zoning, the application is “conditional” so it may be permitted; however, it requires the decision of the Director of Planning.

The building sold in 2016 for $4,388,000, or $436 per buildable SF based on the development application.

A rezoning application has been made for an existing apartment property at Lonsdale and 26th Street in North Vancouver. There was a fire in the building one year ago and the existing apartment property has been vacant ever since.

The site is designated Residental Level 5 in the City of North Vancouver’s Official Community Plan.

The proposal is for a new 6-storey building that includes:

• 16 condo units (6 one-bedrooms, 6 two-bedrooms & 4 three-bedrooms);
• 28 rental units (19 one-bedrooms, 6 two-bedrooms & 3 three-bedrooms);
• A total density of 2.06 FAR (after consolidation);
• 36 underground parking stalls.
• A 15-foot wide pedestrian right of way connecting Lonsdale.

The architect for the project is GBL Architects.
