The proposal calls for 40 condominium units, with a unit mix of three studio units, nine one-bedroom units, 18 two-bedroom units, and 10 three-bedroom units. This does not include the 10 rental lock-off units that are proposed, adding to much-needed rental housing stock.

“As there are various styles evident in the neighbourhood, this proposal introduces a contemporary style with flat roof overhang, horizontal cement board, and authentic brick cladding,” reads the design rationale.
“This proposed design also reflects the style of the residential multi-family building across the street.”

A single underground level accessed from the laneway accommodates 40 vehicle parking stalls and 95 bike parking spaces.
With a total floor area of about 35,000 sq. ft., the project has a floor space ratio density of 1.95 times the size of its 17,900-sq-ft lot.
