The City of Vancouver has received an application to rezone 118-150 Robson Street from DD (Downtown) District to CD-1 (Comprehensive Development) District. The proposal is for a 29-storey mixed-use development with a six-storey podium, including:

  • Retention and restoration of the existing Northern Electric Building facade;
  • Hotel, commercial and residential uses, including 131 residential units;
  • Five levels of underground parking
  • A floor space ratio (FSR) of 10.08; and
  • A building height of 88.5 m (290 ft.)
If the site is redeveloped, a new shelter space will be provided for the existing Catholic Charities shelter, as part of the agreement between the developer and Catholic Charities. This rezoning application is being considered under the Rezoning Policy for the Central Business District (CBD) and CBD Shoulder.

A community open house will be held from 5:00-8:00pm on Monday, June 19, 2017 at the Sandman Hotel (Ballroom, 2nd Floor) at 180 West Georgia Street with the applicant team and City staff available to answer questions.
