The formal rezoning application for PCI‘s Spring Street application has been released. The preliminary application for the 2.9 acre site was submitted in 2023 and has now been revised for full submission following the TOA legislation.

The site is located east of the Moody Centre SkyTrain Station north of Spring Street and east of Williams Street and consists of four lots, three of which are owned by PCI and the fourth by the Ministry of the Transportation and Infrastructure (MoTI). MoTI intends to retain ownership of this lot, with a long-term lease to PCI for use as a plaza along with four levels of below-grade parking connected to the below grade parking on the PCI owned properties.

The overall plan for the site includes:

• 865 rental units including 44 below market units;
• 67,000 SF of commercial space including a 41,000 SF grocery store;
• a total density of 6.96 FSR;
• 4,000 SF as ground level ‘artist space’;
• a new pedestrian overpass;
• a minimum of 400 parking stalls.

The architect for the project is Perkins + Will.

A rezoning and OCP amendment application have been submitted by Benedet Properties for a site at 2331-2335 St. Johns Street for a new 6-storey building including rental apartment units above retail.

The site consists of two lots at the southwest corner of St. Johns Street and Queens Street plus a portion of City land within the Queens Street right-of-way.

The proposal is to construct a 6-storey mixed-use commercial and residential building and a rooftop garden. The first two levels of the building would contain a Bosa Foods and a parkade for commercial use on the same ground level with a mezzanine and portion of residential parking stalls at the rear on the next floor. Due to the sloping nature of the site, the lowest commercial level
facing St. Johns Street is considered to be a “basement”.

Additional details include:

• 48 market rental units;
  • 8 studios, 21 one-bedrooms, 12 two-bedrooms & 7 three-bedrooms;
• 6,900 SF Bosa Foods Store;
• a total density of 2.63 FSR;
• a CAC payment of $161,627 ($2.88 per SF)

The architect for the project is Cornerstone Architecture.

A rezoning application has been submitted to the City of Port Moody for a new stacked townhouse development on a land assembly consisting of five single-family lots totaling 43,555 SF

The site, located at 2213-2229 Clarke Street, has an OCP designation of ‘Multi-Family Residential and Mixed Use – Moody Centre’.

The proposal is for five 3-storey stacked townhouse buildings, and includes:

• 40 units;
• 30 two-bedrooms & 10 two-bedrooms;
• a total density of 1.30 FAR;
• 90 underground parking spaces.

Port Moody’s Inclusionary Zoning – Affordable Rental Units Policy does not apply to projects
proposing a residential density less than 2.0 FAR. As this application proposes a FAR of 1.3,
no rental or below market rental units are required or provided.

The application requires an OCP amendment as two of the lots require commercial uses, but only residential is being proposed.

The architect for the project is Igel Architecture.
