Sightline Properties has submitted the first rezoning application under the City of Vancouver’s TOA Rezoning Policy, adopted by City Council in June 2024 following the Provincial TOA legislation.

The 50,013 SF site at 520-590 West 29th Avenue is a full city block land assembly between Cambie and Ash Street. The site was previously approved in 2022 as a 46-unit townhouse project under the RM-8A zoning under the Cambie Corridor Plan.

The proposal envisions two 6-storey woodframe rental buildings, with townhouses on the lane. It includes:

• 230 rental units (20% below-market);
• a total density of 3.0 FSR;
• A building height of 69 ft.;
• an 1,800 SF gym on the parkade level with natural light from clerestory windows;
• a single level of underground parking.

The massing and project setbacks are based off of the City’s existing RR-2C District Schedule.

The application is being considered under the Transit-Oriented Areas Rezoning Policy.
