The City of Vancouver has received an application to rezone the subject site from HA-2 (Historic Area) to CD-1 (Comprehensive Development) District. The proposal is to allow for the development of a 20-storey mixed-use rental building with a five-storey podium and includes:
219 rental units with 20% of the floor area for below-market units;
179-room hotel;
Commercial space on the ground floor;
A floor space ratio (FSR) of 7.03; and
A building height of 66.4 m (218 ft.).
This proposal is located in the Gastown sub area of the Downtown Eastside Plan. The proposal requests rezoning consideration of height in excess of the existing policy. The Gastown sub-area allows a maximum height of 22.9 m (75 ft.).
This proposal includes a number of heritage properties, and as such, the City’s Heritage Policies apply. The application proposes primarily façade-only retention for the Cohen Block (Vancouver Heritage Register-listed buildings).
This application is being processed and reviewed concurrently with the application to rezone 15-27 W Hastings.
Application drawings and statistics are posted as-submitted to the City. Following staff review, the final project statistics are documented within the referral report.
