The City of Vancouver has received an application to rezone the subject site from M-1 (Industrial) District to CD-1 (Comprehensive Development) District. The proposal is to allow for the development of a 38-storey mixed-use building and includes:

  • 382 rental residential units;
  • Commercial space on the ground floor;
  • A floor space ratio (FSR) of 16.1; and
  • A building height of 105.5 m (364 ft.) with additional height for rooftop amenity space.

This application is being considered under the Downtown Eastside Plan. The application requests consideration of height and density in excess of the existing policy.

This application is being processed and reviewed concurrently with the application to rezone 1115-1127 E Hastings St and 1168-1180 E Hastings St.

Application drawings and statistics are posted as-submitted to the City. Following staff review, the final project statistics are documented within the referral report.

  • Share The term 'East Village' is associated not only with the gentrification of a historically diverse and working-class neighborhood in New York City, but also with the largely opposed 2015 rebranding attempt by the Hastings-Sunrise BIA, which faced significant resistance from local residents.

    Response has been provided by the applicant: This is a working title and it derives from general themes as the project is composed of many addresses. “East” refers to the general area of East Vancouver and “Village” refers to the scale and ambitions as a community hub. The project may eventually be branded with a different name.
