The City of Vancouver has received an application to rezone the subject site from RM-4 (Residential) District to CD-1 (Comprehensive Development) District. The proposal is to allow for the development of a 23-storey mixed-use rental building with a 4-storey podium and includes:

  • 159 units with 20% of the floor area for below-market rental units;
  • A 37-space childcare facility;
  • Commercial space on the ground floor;
  • A floor space ratio (FSR) of 7.1; and
  • A building height of 75 m (245 ft.).

This application is being considered under the Broadway Plan.

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

  • Share Thank you for the notice of rezoning application. I am wondering how the issue of parking will be addressed? Is there a plan for the 159 units to have some form of parking for all (or most) units? If there is not such a plan in place, the streets around this area are already very narrow and full with cars and it is hard to imagine how ~160 vehicles might fit, especially as there are already many other rezoning applications in the neighbourhood focused on significantly increasing density. I would like more specific details about how this important detail may be mitigated. I do not think it is sufficient to say that the large amount of tenants would simply use public transport and not own vehicles - this would be a big assumption that would not be consistent with the current ratios of car ownership in the neighbourhood.

    Thank you for your question. The proposal includes 39 off street parking spaces within the underground parkade. The amount of parking spaces proposed is consistent with City policy and by-laws as no parking minimums are no longer required across the City. Parking minimums were originally removed for proposals within the Westend, Downtown Core, and Broadway Plan. However, in June 2024, Council voted to remove parking minimums across the City. 

    The applicant is required to submit a Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Plan, which is a set of strategies aimed at maximizing the utility of sustainable transportation choices. The elimination of minimum off-street parking requirements certainly has the potential to increase demand for on-street parking. Staff will utilize existing tools such as time-limited parking, pay parking and permit parking to help manage demand, and to initiate the conversion of Residential Parking Only areas to Residential Permit Parking to better manage parking in these areas. I have linked the report to Council below.

    https://council.vancouver.ca/20240626/documents/cfsc2.pdf

    At this time, the portion of the street fronting the proposal is not a resident parking zone. Please see the blue zones below indicating local resident parking areas. If the surrounding residents choose to establish one, they can follow the steps below. Over time, this may also be City initiated.

    kl asked 4 months ago

    Why is there no shadow study for winter included? 

    Testing has shown that a solar access strategy evaluated between 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. PDT from the spring through the fall equinoxes strikes a balance between open space utilization and development potential. Staff can request further shadow analysis during the winter months if there is potential or risk for a proposed building to shadow onto a park, school yard, or shopping street. 

    How will this building's architecture follow the Broadway Plan policy of considering the architectural history of the neighbourhood?

    Design review of the proposed building is still ongoing. If the proposal progresses, it is likely that conditions of approval to refine the design and ensure a better contextual fit will be applied. I have noted a few project features below that demonstrate the Broadway Plan’s built form guidelines. Please review Chapter 11 of the Plan. https://guidelines.vancouver.ca/policy-plan-broadway.pdf 

    1. The four storey podium continues the 4 storey streetwall created by the adjacent apartment buildings. 
    2. The proposal provides a 12 ft (3.7 m) front setback which is in line with adjacent properties. 
    3. Mature street trees at the northeast corner of the site are set for retention. This design approach ensures the street’s tree canopy is maintained. 
    4. New lane dedications along the side property and rear will ensure all loading and waste storage is contained and screened away from the street.
    5. Tower setbacks to the east and south are provided to create less of an impact on the neighbouring properties.
    6. Lastly, the final colour palette and material choice will be required to blend in with the surrounding context. 

     

    Why should this developer be permitted to apply for a 25% deduction in outdoor space requirements because Delamont Park is within a safe walking distance of 500m?

    This is only applicable to the proposed outdoor play area for the childcare facility. If park/playground is within safe walking distance of 500 m, applicants can reduce the required amount of on-site play areas. The required amount of outdoor areas for the residents shall be met.

    Page 9 shows an aerial photo of the site. This includes mention of Cultural Landscapes and Future Greenways along the streets flanking this building: 6th Avenue and Yew. What are these Cultural Landscapes and Future Greenways? How do they tie into the look and feel of this building?

    The Plan outlines Yew Street as a future greenway. Please refer to Sec. 14.1.4 of the Plan for details on future greenways. Overall,  greenways aim to provide active transportation and recreation opportunities for people of all ages and abilities. These car-lite to car-free corridors connect to key destinations, provide more open green space, and enhance natural systems and public life. Considering the proposal fronts onto a future greenway, public realm improvements may be required as part of the project’s conditions of approval. In terms of the cultural landscapes, Staff are unsure what the applicant is referring to.

    Will the limit on this tower's number of storeys change in November? Are there opportunities for the public to discuss this with council prior to November? Will this street's limit on number of towers per block change in November? Are there opportunities for the public to discuss this with council prior to November?

    Given the proposal is within a Tier 2 TOA, Staff are recommending to Council that the tower per block allowances are removed. Further information regarding this work can be found here: https://www.shapeyourcity.ca/broadway-plan?tool=news_feed#tool_tab

    The final decision-makers on this matter is Council and there will be an opportunity for members of the public to speak before Council. The website above will be updated closer to the November Council date. There will be instructions on how residents can sign up to speak to Council.

    MarxistAwakening asked 4 months ago

    Thank you for the question. The Tenant Relocation and Protection Policy (TRPP) and additional tenant protections contained in the Broadway Plan requires includes the requirement that each applicant must offer relocation assistance finding alternative accommodation to all eligible tenants. 

    To meet this requirement, the applicant must demonstrate to City Staff that at least 3 housing options have been provided to each eligible tenant that best meets the tenant’s identified needs and priorities (such as location, budget etc.), as detailed in the Tenant Needs Survey and follow up 1-1 conversations. Additionally, for low income tenants and tenants additional barriers to housing, the applicant must demonstrate that an affordable housing option has been secured for each tenant that meets their needs. City Staff place holds on Demolition Permit issuance until the applicant demonstrates that the TRPP requirements have been met. This means that City Staff would not issue the Demolition Permit until the applicant was able to demonstrate that at least 3 suitable housing options had been provided, or an affordable housing option secured, to each eligible tenant. 

    There are currently no proposed amendments to the Broadway Plan tenant protection policies as part of the November 2024 amendments.

    Thank you for looking into this issue. Staff are aware of the inconsistency. Staff utilized the architectural model to carry out a City led shadow study. It was determined no shadow impacts to schools, parks, or shopping streets are created. Nevertheless, we have requested the applicant revise the shadow studies to accurately be set to UTC -7 between Mar 20 and Sept 22. The Shape Your City page will be updated once the study is confirmed as accurate.

    Given the site’s proximity to 4th Avenue (a shopping street included within the City’s solar access policy) and Delamont Park, Staff carried out further review to ensure the shadow studies are accurate. Staff utilized the architectural model and determined no shadows would be created onto 4th Avenue or Delamont Park. Further, in terms of the applicant’s shadow analysis, it was determined there are no inaccuracies with the applicant’s metrics or inputs. The analysis you are referring to was carried out independently, separate from City staff.

    Thank you for your question. We do not require applicants to provide drawings detailing both proposals. However, I did review both site plans and each proposal demonstrates the required 40 ft. to the centreline of the new rear lane. This means the 80 ft. tower separation is achieved. For 2180 W 6th Ave, the site plan can be found on Pg. 45 of the rezoning booklet. For 2175 W 7th Ave, the site plan can be found on Pg. 16 of the rezoning booklet. Both these plans, indicate the 40 ft. tower separation.
