City sends Harbourside to hearing.

The controversial Harbourside development south of the North Shore Automall will go to an official public hearing in June following a Monday night decision by City of North Vancouver council.

Council voted 5-2 in favour of moving the project forward to a formal official community plan amendment process, after the developers made changes to the original plan and council gathered public feedback in March.

Dolphin Cinemas building up for redevelopment.

The building that houses Burnaby’s popular Dolphin Cinemas is up for redevelopment.

The rezoning application for the development came before Burnaby council at Monday night’s meeting.

Intergulf Development Group has applied to the City of Vancouver to rezone seven single family lots at Cambie and West 29th. The site, located at 4533-4591 Cambie Street will be rezoned from RS-1 to CD-1, as provided under the Cambie Corridor Plan. The proposal is for three 6-storey residential buildings containing 177 units and 8 townhouses, with 20 per cent of the total number of units (37 units) being provided as market rental housing. The proposal includes a density of 2.62 FSR and 195 underground parking spaces.

The development is broken down into three seperate blocks that follow the natural curve of Cambie Street. The individual buildings offer variation in scale and length while remaining consistent in character and materiality.
