Wow, I actually quite like this proposal! It's interesting with the shapes and materials but not too out there.
 
WOW, that is awesome! I can't wait to see this project come to fruition.

@Kaizen Looks like there is already a thread for that development you mentioned a few days ago!

The amendments to the original application have already been discussed in this thread, but here's the latest from the city website:

"A planning application (map) has been received for the rezoning of a property at 8301 99 Street NW. The proposed zoning is for a new Site Specific Development Control Provision (DC2) that is similar to the existing DC2 Provision, but with the following changes:

  • Maximum number of dwellings increased from 22 to 29
  • Floor Area Ratio increased from 3.0 to 3.2
  • Added requirement for a minimum amount of commercial floor area of 90 sq. m
  • Minor adjustments to setbacks of the building from lot lines
  • Reduction/removal of some stepbacks of building facades.
The maximum building height of 23.0 m has not been changed.

An associated application has also been made to amend the Strathcona Area Redevelopment Plan to remove the requirement for the building to have a stepback above the third storey, and instead use building articulations and colour contrast to reduce the perceived building mass of a six-storey building on this site, and add visual interest to the streetscape.

Proposed West Elevation of New Building"
