Intracorp has submitted a revised rezoning application for the Ashley Mar Co-op site 8460 Ash Street in the Marpole area of Vancouver.

Their original rezoning application from 2019 envisioned three towers at 15, 24, 27 storeys and included 457 rental units.

The new application proposes increased tower heights, density and more units in exchange for increased setbacks along Ash Street to allow for improved tree retention. The proposal now includes:

• Three towers at 16, 27 and 31 storeys;
• 1-for-1 replacement of the existing 54 Ashley Mar Housing Co-operative units;
• 71 additional non-market housing units;
• 524 secured market rental units;
• 1 commercial-retail unit;
• A total density of 8.21 FSR (up from 7.54 FSR)
• A max building height of 304 ft. (up from 267 ft);
• 195 vehicle parking spaces and 1,297 bicycle parking spaces.

The application is being considered under the Marpole Community Plan and the Ashley Mar Issues Report (February 11, 2020).

Hudsonmorris Projects has submitted a rezoning application for the 7-11 site at the Southeast corner of Kingsway and Joyce in East Vancouver.

The proposal, entitled “J@K” for 3304 Kingsway is to allow for the development of a new 6-storey mixed use building. The zoning for the 13,530 SF site would change from C-2 and includes:

• 79 market rental units;
• 45 studios, 5 one bedrooms & 29 two-bedrooms;
• 5,900 SF of retail space;
• a total density of 3.93 FSR;
• A building height of 74 ft.;
• 31 vehicle parking spaces and 174 bicycle parking spaces.

The application is being considered under the Secured Rental Policy.

Hudsonmorris acquired the site in July 2020 for $4,850,000 or $86 per buildable SF based on the application.

The architect for the project is Yamamoto Architecture.

PC Urban has submitted a preliminary rezoning application to the City of Port Moody for a 6-storey market-rental project on a four single-family lot assembly at 3316-3330 Dewdney Trunk Road.

The 33,233 SF site is located down the block from a 229-unit rental project built by PC Urban, now nearing completion.

Details of the new proposal include:

• 133 rental units;
• 52 one-bedrooms and 58 two-bedrooms;
• a total density of 3.38 FSR;
• 90 underground parking spaces.

The OCP indicates 4-storeys for this site, and so an OCP amendment is required.
