New Development Planned for Dunbar & 27th

A development application has been filed by a partnership including Dayhu Group for a 30,816 SF C-2 zoned site at Dunbar and 27th on the Westside of Vancouver. The site is part of a land assembly put together over several years, concluding with the acquisition of a large portion of the block (4253-4275 Dunbar Street) in January 2014 for $8,010,000.

The plan calls for a 4-storey mixed-use building at the Northwest corner of Dunbar and 27th that will include a relocated Stong’s Grocery store. Details include:

  • 46 residential units
  • 20,800 SF of ground floor retail space (including relocated Stong’s Grocery)
  • A density of 2.48 FSR
  • 165 parking stalls in two underground parking levels
Currently, the site is largely occupied by single-storey retail stores with one being two-storeys. The proposal does not include the RBC at the corner of Dunbar and 26th, while the remaining street frontage will be dedicated to the new and expanded location of Stong’s Grocery and Buntain Insurance, both local businesses that will remain within the Dunbar neighbourhood.
