Amacon has submitted a rezoning application to the City of Burnaby for 46,640 SF site at 2211-2271 Rosser Avenue in the Brentwood Town Centre area.

The application proposed a highrise development as well as a density transfer from a nearby site at 5166 Halifax Street.

The Rosser site is currently improved with older industrial units and a residential sales centre. Under the Brentwood Town Centre Development Plan, the site is designated for medium to high-density mixed-use development utilizing the RM4, RM4s, RM4r, and C9 Districts as guidelines.

The proposal for the Rosser site includes:

• a 61-storey highrise;
• 541 residential units, including:
• 442 condos
• 27 market rentals;
• 72 non-market rentals;
• 172 hotel rooms in 11-storey podium;
• a total density of 11.45 FAR;
• 614 underground parking spaces.

Regarding the density transfer, the City notes: “A density transfer will facilitate the replacement of ageing rental units at the Halifax Site, as well as provide additional non-market and market rental units, while maintaining a scale of development that is in keeping with the intent of the Plan and adjacent developments. As outlined in that report, the construction of both sites will be phased, with the subject site (Rosser Site) proceeding to occupancy prior to the redevelopment of the Halifax Site. This would provide the opportunity for residents of the Halifax site to relocate to the Rosser Site on an interim basis, until the Halifax Site attains occupancy and their replacement rental units can be occupied.”

Amacon is proposing a 22-storey condo tower in the Brentwood area of Burnaby. First proposed back in 2017, the project site is located at 4455 Alaska Street, currently improved with an older industrial building. The total site area is 40,786 SF.

The Brentwood Town Centre Development Plan designates the subject site for high-density multiple-family residential development based on the RM4s Multiple Family Residential High Rise Apartment Tower with Street-Oriented Townhouses as a guideline, up to a maximum of 3.60 FAR.

The proposed development concept is for a single 22-storey tower above
structured and underground parking, with ground oriented townhousing fronting Alaska
Street. Details include:

• 164 Units;
  • 18 studios, 58 one-bedrooms, 70 two-bedrooms & 12 three-bedrooms;
• a total density of 3.60 FAR;
• 182 parking spaces.

Amacon has submitted rezoning and development permit application for a 1.60 acre site in the rapidly developing Burquitlam area on the Western edge of Coquitlam.

The application proposes to rezone the site at 500 Foster Avenue and 633 North Road from the current RM-2 zoning to RM-6 in order to permit a new high density residential development. The site is located within the Burquitlam Lougheed Neighbourhood Plan and is designated High Density Apartment Residential in the OCP and is located within the Transit Corridor “Shoulder” area of Burquitlam-Lougheed in the Transit-Oriented Development Strategy (TDS). 

The site is currently occupied by two, three-storey apartment buildings providing 89
units of rental housing which will be removed and replaced as part of the proposed development.

The development proposal includes:

• a 41-storey tower with 304 market condo units;
  • 138 one-bedrooms, 136 two-bedrooms & 30 three-bedrooms;
• a 6-storey lowrise building with 93 rental units;
  • 17 studios, 49 one-bedrooms, 17 two-bedrooms and 10 three-bedrooms;
• one retail unit totaling 1,700 SF;
• a total density of 5.0 FAR;
• 21,700 SF of amenity space;
• 448 underground parking spaces.

The architect for the project is Chris Dikeakos Architects.
