1700 Alberni Tower 1

Now, Bosa and Kingswood are proposing a 44-storey East Tower and a 41-storey West Tower, both of which would include six-storey building podiums. The two towers would collectively provide 613 residential units, replacing the 75 units in the existing two buildings.

The 44-storey East Tower, fronting Bidwell Street, will provide a total of 377 rental units, with a suite mix of 20 studio units, 221 one-bedroom units, 136 two-bedroom units, and zero three-bedroom units. Of the 377 units, 75 are being proposed as below-market rental units. This tower will also house 4,769 sq. ft of retail space, provide 176 vehicle parking spaces and 788 bicycle parking spaces, have a floor space ratio of 16.11, and reach a height of 385 ft.

"Bosa Properties and Kingswood Properties are proposing a rental structure for the below-market rental units similar to social housing projects in the West End where 30% of Below Market Rental units will be offered at deep affordability of 50% CMHC reported average market rates, and where 70% of below-market rental units will be offered at low end of market rates of 80% CMHC reported average market rates," said the developers in their rezoning application.

The 41-storey West Tower, fronting Alberni Street, will then provide 236 strata units, with a suite mix of zero studio units, 124 one-bedroom units, 83 two-bedroom units, and 29 three-bedroom units. This tower will not include any retail space, will provide 315 vehicle parking spaces and 535 bicycle parking spaces, have a density of 14.60 FSR, and also reach a height of 385 ft, despite housing less stories.
