Re-zoning application submitted January 05 2024

This application was approved by Council on November 26, 2024 following the Public Hearings on November 12 and 14, 2024.

The City of Vancouver has received an application to rezone the subject site from C-2 (Commercial) District to CD-1 (Comprehensive Development) District. The proposal is to allow for the development of a 24-storey mixed-use building and includes:

201 secured rental units with 20% of the floor area secured for below market rental units (approximately 41 units);
Commercial space on the ground floor and on Level 2;
A floor space ratio (FSR) of 8.5; and
A building height of 84.6 m (277 ft.) with additional height for rooftop amenity space and mechanical appurtenances.

Under the Broadway Plan, Qualex-Landmark™ is proposing a transit-centric, 24-storey tower that will feature 201 much-needed rental units, along with over 6,100 SF of active, street-level retail space fronting Fraser St. and Kingsway.
