Tricor Pacific & Redic Developments have applied to the District of North Vancouver for a rezoning and OCP amendment to redevelop seven single-family lots in the Lynn Creek area of North Vancouver on Mountain Highway and Oxford Street, next door to Lynn Creek Apartments, completed in 2018.

The OCP designates the subject site as “Residential Level 6” (RES6) which
envisions medium-rise apartments at a density of up to approximately 2.5 FSR. The application proposes a higher density which will require the OCP amendment.

The plan for the 33,000 SF site is to build a new 6-storey rental building that includes:

• 140 rental units;
• 134 market rentals;
• 6 non-market rentals;
• 16 studios, 55 one-bedrooms, 64 two-bedrooms & 5 three-bedrooms;
• a total density of 2.69 FAR;
• 101 parking spaces on one underground level.

The architect for the project is Yamamoto Architecture.

Wave Developments has applied to the City of Vancouver for permission to develop on a 19,724 SF site at East 2nd and Scotia.

The proposal is for a new 9-storey mixed residential and commercial use building, consisting of:

• Manufacturing, Brewing and Distilling Use at Level 1 & 2;
• Ground floor restaurant/retail space;
• Gym & office space on level 2;
• Market rental units on levels 3-7;
• Office space on levels 8-9;
• 66 parking stalls on two levels of underground parking;
• A building height of 102 ft.;
• A total density of 4.0 FSR.

Under the site’s existing IC-3 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 Studio Balcaen Kwan.

A rezoning application has been submitted to the City of Vancouver for a 19,000 SF site at 1405 E 15th Avenue and 3071-3047 Maddams St in East Vancouver. The site is located along Knight Street, just West of Clark park and is an assembly of four single family lots.

The proposal is to allow for the development of 6-storey market rental building that includes:

• 79 rental units;
• 51 studios, 20 two-bedrooms & 8 three/four bedrooms;
• A total density of 2.58 FSR;
• A maximum height of 68.2 ft.;
• 24 vehicle parking spaces and 135 bike parking spaces.

The application is being considered under the Affordable Housing Choices Interim Rezoning Policy(External link).

The architect for the project is Stuart Howard Architects.

Wesgroup has applied to the City of New Westminster for a zoning bylaw amendment for a site that they own at 100 Braid Street in the Sapperton area.

The site was previously rezoned in 2016 from light industrial to mixed use to allow a 21-storey condo tower. The lot is 47,006 SF and is adjacent to the new Urban Academy School (also subject of the previous rezoning), and just south of the large Master Planned Sapperton Green project. It is currently occupied by four commercial tenants.

The revised proposal for the site is a 35-storey, 100% market rental tower that includes:

• 424 rental units;
• 57 studios, 260 one-bedrooms, 86 two-bedrooms & 21 three-bedrooms;
• a total density of 6.60 FSR;
• a building height of 390 ft.;
• 422 underground parking spaces;
• 4,252 SF of community art gallery/studio space that would be offered to tenants at discounted rents.

There will be a 5-storey mixed-use podium. The podium would be situated on the north and east frontages while the tower would be located at the northeast corner of the site. An art gallery/studio space would be provided at the ground-level within the podium along the Braid Street frontage adjacent to the Urban Academy School.

The proposal would include townhouses on the south frontage that would be accessed from within the development as well as from a private walkway that runs along the south and east edges of the site. This walkway would also provide access to other groundoriented units located within the easterly podium levels. The development would share a vehicular entry and multi-use pathway with the school to the west. The parkade entrance
for the building would be located off of the shared driveway between this site and Urban Academy.

The architect for the project is Chris Dikeakos.

• 62 condo units;
• 7,200 SF of ground floor retail space;
• A total density of 3.00 FSR;
• Maximum height of 74.3 ft.;
• 71 vehicle parking spaces and 117 bicycle parking spaces.
