A rezoning application has been submitted by Hallmark Hospitality for 901 West Broadway, an 11,700 SF site at the Northwest corner of West Broadway and Laurel Street.
The site is currently improved with a single storey restaurant building.
The proposal is to allow for the development of a 12-storey hotel building that includes:
147 hotel rooms;
Restaurant space at grade;
A total density of 7.95 FSR;
A building height of 133 ft.;
62 vehicle parking spaces and 18 bicycle parking spaces.
Bastion Development has submitted two development applications for a proposal to redevelop the Shell gas station site at the Northwest corner of Broadway and Arbutus Street, as well as an adjacent peice of property at West 8th and Arbutus.
Bastion acquired the combined 29,000 SF site in 2013, long before the formal announcement of a Millenium Line Broadway extension which will see a stop located at the Northeast corner of this intersection.
The proposal(s) seek redevelopment of these sites under the existing C-3A and RM-4 zoning guidelines, rather than a lengthy and uncertain rezoning process.
Two levels of underground parking, providing a total of 120 parking spaces having vehicular access from the lane.
Under the site’s existing C3-A zoning, the application is “conditional” so it may be permitted. However, it requires the decision of the Development Permit Board.
10 parking spaces provided in the adjacent development on Broadway.
Under the site’s existing RM-4 zoning(External link), the application is “conditional” so it may be permitted. However, it requires the decision of the Development Permit Board.
Solterra Development has submitted a development application for a vacant lot at the Southwest corner of West 7th Avenue and Fir Street. Solterra acquired the site in 2011 after which time the 2-storey office building (Family Services of Greater Vancouver) was demolished. A previously approved development application for the 9,406 SF site was shelved and the site has since sat vacant for several years.
The current proposal for 1616 West 7th Avenue is for a new-11-storey building under the existing C-3A guidelines and includes the following:
43 condo units;
17 one-bedrooms, 23 two-bedrooms & 7 three-bedroom units
4 two-storey townhomes along West 7th Avenue;
a total density of 5.40 FSR;
a 5,901 SF cultural facility space (provision allowing increase above 3.0 FSR);
over four levels of underground parking with 78 stalls.
