    Parking, loading, bicycle spaces, and passenger loading must be provided and maintained according to the provisions of the Vancouver Parking By-law (https://vancouver.ca/your-government/parking-bylaw.aspxand) and will be confirmed at the time of the development permit application.

    Developments across the City have the choice of how much general purpose parking to provide, allowing developments the opportunity to better balance their market demand for vehicle parking they need with housing and construction costs. However, accessible parking, residential visitor parking, bicycle parking, loading, and passenger loading spaces remain requirements of new developments.

    As indicated in the applicant booklet, there are 39 existing rental units on the property. The City keeps data on the number of tenants impacted by redevelopment in the Broadway Plan area and those numbers are reported to Council on a quarterly basis.

  • Share The proposal includes a 6 storey podium which is out of context with the buildings that will remain surrounding it, and also beyond what is recommended in the Broadway Plan guidelines. This will cause overlook and shadowing issues for buildings across the lane, and will not be consistent with other properties being developed under the Broadway plan.
