Prior to the current proposal, a rezoning application had been underway since 2009 by a separate applicant for an 18-storey tower consisting of retail, medical offices, a care facility, and condos on the same site. Despite that application receiving 3rd Reading (preliminary approval) back in 2010, the project did not end up proceeding to 4th reading (final adoption).
- Evolve | Condo, Office, Retail | 36 fl (Under Construction)
- West Village 5 | Rental Apartment, Retail | 44 fl (Preliminary Approval)
- Whalley District | Condo, Commercial, Arts | 35 + 37 + 46 fl (Preliminary Approval)
- GEC Education Mega Centre | Student Hotel, College | 55 fl (Proposed)
The proposed tower will also add to a number of tower projects set to get underway in the immediate vicinity, including a 30-storey Condo / Hampton Hotel just to the north at 98th Ave and King George; Phase B of King George Hub, Innovation Village, and Lark Group’s City Centre 2 and 3.
