• 41,000 SF of commercial space on the ground floor, including a supermarket;
• a total density of 3.84 FSR;

Anthem Properties has submitted a rezoning application for a site sold by our team in 2022 at the Northwest corner of Fraser and East 17th Avenue in East Vancouver.

A portion of the site had a previous development application under the existing C-2 zoning for a 4-storey condo building.

The proposal is to allow for the development of a 14-storey rental apartment building that includes:

• 110 market rental units (20 units assigned to moderate income households);
  • 25 studios, 33 one-bedrooms & 32 two-bedrooms;
• 5,035 SF of retail space at grade;
• A total density of 6.90 FSR;
• A building height of 156 ft.; and
• 69 vehicle parking spaces and 213 bicycle parking spaces.

The application is being considered under the Moderate Income Rental Housing Pilot Program (MIRHPP) Rezoning Policy.

The architect for the project is BHA Architecture Inc.

A rezoning application has been submitted for a site in Mount Pleasant that was previously approved for rezoning under Rental 100.

445 Kingsway and 2935 St. George Street, currently the Destination Hyundai dealership, received rezoning approval from City of Vancouver council in 2016 for a 109-unit rental apartment project with a new Honda dealership at grade. The rezoning was never enacted, and a new application has surfaced in its place.

The new application is being made under the City’s Moderate Income Rental Housing Pilot Program, which allows proposals up to 14-storeys on arterials. The existing 46,576 SF site is zoned C-2.

The proposal calls for two 14-storey towers above a podium, and includes:

• 215 rental units (with 20% of the residential floor area assigned to moderate income households);
• 54 studios, 86 one-bedrooms, 54 two-bedrooms & 21 three-bedrooms;
• 31,000 SF of retail and office space;
• 96,000 SF commercial car wash and vehicle storage in the underground parkade;
• a total density of 4.84 FSR (above grade);
• a building height of 150 ft.; and
• 224 underground parking stalls and 443 bike spaces (including underground vehicle storage).

The commercial car wash is intended to serve the nearby Kingsway Honda dealership and service centre located at the Stella mixed-use development at Kingsway and East 12th Avenue.

The application is being considered under the Moderate Income Rental Housing Pilot Program.

The architect for the project is Acton Ostry.
