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.

Wesgroup has submitted a rezoning application for a site at the corner of Commercial and East 12th in East Vancouver, sold by our team in 2019.

The proposal is to allow for a 6-storey mixed-use building. The zoning would change from C-2C1 to allow development of:

• 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.

The architect for the project is Ciccozzi Architecture.

Thind Properties has applied to the City of Richmond for permission to rezone a 3.9 acre site at 5740, 5760, and 5800 Minoru Boulevard, in the Lansdowne Village area of Richmond.

Thind acquired the site in 2018 for $60,000,000.

The proposed concept for the site was first unveiled in late 2019. The formal application now confirms a high-rise, high density, mixed use development to replace the existing older commercial/industrial buildings on site.

The project comprises a 12-storey office tower and three residential towers.

Details include:

• 429 residential units;
• 341 condos and 88 affordable housing units;
• 162,000 SF of office space;
• 25,000 SF of retail space;
• a total gross density of 3.20 FAR;
• 632 parking spaces.

Prior to rezoning adoption, legal agreements will be registered on title to limit subdivision by air space parcel or strata-title on a floor-by-floor basis (to ensure the development provides for flexible, large floorplate office spaces).

The architect for the project is IBI Group.
