Bosa Properties has submitted an application to amend the existing CD-1 zoning for 1575 West Georgia to permit a 26-storey tower on the site, currently a 3-storey office building. The plan is for:

• a 26-storey residential tower
• a density of 10.83 FSR;
• a total of 184 residential units;
• ground-level commercial space;
• three floors of office space;
• seven levels of underground parking;
• a total height of 265 ft.

An application has been made to rezone a 23,347 SF site consisting of an assembly of single family lots at 126-168 East 35th Avenue from RS-1 to CD-1. The proposal, being made under the Little Mountain Adjacent Area Rezoning Policy, is for a 6-storey apartment building and a 1-storey building along the lane that includes:

• 48 residential units;
• a density of 2.3 FAR;
• 60 underground parking spaces

After months of speculation about a potential sale, Morguard has officially completed the sale of 1500 West Georgia Street to Bosa Properties (1500 Holdco) Inc. for a reported $120,500,000.

The 193,000 SF A Class office building sits on a very valuable and partially underutilized 43,320 SF, full-block site at the Southeast corner of West Georgia and Cardero and has been a landmark in Vancouver since it was built in the late 1970’s.

Any future redevelopment plans of the plaza area are not known at this time.
