9-Storey Office/Labratory Building Proposed for Mount Pleasant

Beedie & Abcellera have formally submitted their rezoning application for the Vancouver-based biotechnology company’s new campus at 110 West 4th Avenue. The project is a joint venture between Beedie and Abcellera.

The proposal is to build a 9-storey office and laboratory building on the 30,205 sq ft site, changing the zoning from I-1 to a new CD zone. The proposal includes:

• 221,343 sq. ft. of office & labratory space;
• a total density of 7.0 FSR;
• A building height of 151 ft.;
• 268 underground parking spaces and 88 bicycle spaces.

The application is being considered under the Metro Core Jobs & Economy Land Use Plan andPolicy on Consideration of Rezoning Applications during the Broadway Planning Process.

The rezoning and development permit application review process will take place concurrently.

Abcellera will also occupy the neighbouring 4-storey office building currently under construction.

The architect for the project is Francl Architecture.
