A rezoning proposal has been put forward to develop a phased commercial development at 2020 Boundary Road, a site the Northeast corner of Lougheed and Boundary Road in Burnaby. Translink sold the site last year to the Open Road Auto Group for $19.2 Million.

The development will consist of:

• two or three high-end auto dealerships
• a 4-storey fully enclosed glass structured car parkade
• an 8-storey, 85,000 SF office building with underground parking and grade level retail uses
• a total density of 0.77 FAR

The auto dealerships are proposed to be the first phase of the development, with the commercial uses later.

DNV seeks input on Lynn Valley density.

District of North Vancouver residents who want to have a say in the future of the Lynn Valley core are invited to a series of workshops and open houses over the next three weeks.

The town centre is one of four spots in the district earmarked for concentrated growth over the next 20 years.

The Lynn Valley hub has been viewed as a means of addressing what Mayor Richard Walton called a “demographic exodus” among district residents between the ages of 20 and 40. By including affordable townhouses and mid-rise as well as highrise apartments, the district could attract young adults and young families back to the district.

While plans are subject to change, early designs for the town centre include a high-density pedestrian-oriented realm with a mix of retail, shops and housing. A major section of the mall would be retained in the 20-year plan.
