CD-1 Rezoning 1040-1080 Barclay Street Approval

Summary

• A rezoning application proposes to redevelop 1040-1080 Barclay Street in the West End into two towers — a 60-storey east tower and a 57-storey west tower — reaching 167.6 m (550 ft.) each.
• Combined, the project would deliver 365 strata-titled units, 506 secured market rental units, approximately 130 below-market rental units, roughly 99 units of social housing (over 9,495 sq. m), a 37-space childcare facility, and ground-floor commercial space.
• The site currently contains four rental buildings (built 1955–1981) with 173 units, of which 60 tenancies are eligible for protection under the Tenant Relocation and Protection Policy.
• The application is enabled by the West End Community Plan and associated rezoning and rental housing policies, which support higher-density development in the Burrard Corridor.
• Staff recommend approving the application in principle, with Housing Agreement By-laws to be prepared to secure both the below-market and social housing components prior to enactment of the CD-1 By-law.
