Four three-bedroom units in two buildings are proposed as a prototype for a single end-lot in a new zoning area in South-East Vancouver know as Norquay Village. Designed in close consultation with City of Vancouver planners, these units offer affordable housing options for families wishing to live in the city. I participated in the building’s design (including VBBL and BCBC requirements), the preparation of rezoning and development permit packages, consultation with the developer, the City and consultants, and presentation of the proposals to the client and the City. As with all rezoning proposals in the City of Vancouver, these buildings are designed to LEED Gold standards.
