The plan is for a mixed-use project that includes a market condo tower, a non-market rental lowrise, and commercial uses. Details include:

• 195 market condos
• 119 one-bedrooms, 54 two-bedroms and 22 three-bedrooms

• total building height of 290 feet

The architect for the project is GBL Architects.

PC Urban has submitted a rezoning application and OCP amendment for a 5-lot land assembly in the Lower Capilano area of North Vancouver. The site, sold by our team in 2015, is located on the northwest corner of Fullerton Avenue and Glenaire Drive, at the edge of the Capilano River Regional Park.

The lots in question were part of a larger zoning redesignation effort by the District of North Vancouver in 2015, which resulted in several blocks in the area being allowed for townhouse rezoning under the new OCP.

The plan is to redevelop five residential lots located at 1946 -1998 Glenaire Drive to allow a new 3-storey townhouse development, including:

• 23 three-bedroom townhouse units
• Unit sizes ranging from 1,726 SF to 2,322 SF
• three separate buildings
• onsite public pathway adjacent to the Capilano River
• a total density of 1.07 FSR
• a community amenity contribution of $121,581
• 46 underground parking stalls

Rendition Developments has submitted a rezoning application  for a long-vacant site at the NW corner of Main and 41st. The proposal for the 11,684 SF site at 5679 Main Street is for a 6-storey mixed-use building including:

• 52 rental apartment units;
• 5 studios, 29 one-bedroom units, 15 two-bedrooms & 3 three-bedroom units
• 4,089 SF of ground floor retail space
• a total density of 3.46 FSR
• a building height of 76 ft.; and
• 33 underground parking spaces and 72 bicycle parking spaces.

Existing condition

This application is being considered under the Secured Market Rental Housing (Rental 100) Program.

The site sold in May 2016 for $6,000,000, or $149 per buildable SF based on the rezoned density anticipated in the application.

EDIT: This post previously mentioned that the site was an old gas station, which is not accurate, it was previously a commercial building torn down many years ago.
