480 Broughton St (DP-2020-00849 / RZ-2020-00063) development and zoning amendment application
Henriquez Partners Architects has applied to the City of Vancouver for permission to develop the following on this site:
- A 11-storey, mixed-use building, containing 60 social housing units, a 340-student elementary school and a 65-space childcare centre
- A proposed height of 38.86 m (127.49 ft.)
- A floor space ratio of 0.89 (10,645 m² / 114,582 ft.)
- Parking to be located in the existing Coal Harbour Community Centre, supplemented by a proposed underground level for building services and bicycle storage
- Designed for certification under the Passive House and LEED Gold standards
Under the site’s existing CD-1 zoning, the proposed use is “conditional” so it may be permitted. However, it requires the decision of the Development Permit Board. A separate amendment to the zoning by-law, RZ-2020-00063, is proposed to increase the height by 8.86 m, the residential floor area by 1,303 m², and the number of permitted social housing units.
