The second large phase of the Bayview project envisions as many as nine towers ranging in height from 18 to 28 storeys with 1,900 residential units, retail and commercial space, and publicly accessible amenities.
Victoria’s city council will get its first detailed look Thursday at a proposal that has been kicking around city hall for more than 15 years and could transform a large plot of land in Vic West.
Toderian, who spent 30 years as a city planner — including nearly six as the director of planning in Vancouver — said how cities are built drives the housing and climate crises, inequity plays out through zoning, designing cities around the car affects public health, and public infrastructure is problematic when it’s built far from city centres.
Council recently gave final approval for the massive Harris Green redevelopment that will see five residential towers with about 1,500 rental suites and about 100,000 square feet of commercial established on the city centre’s eastern edge.
Toderian noted the Roundhouse project was actually approved in 2008, but what was approved was essentially unbuildable due to what was required of the developer. The floor-space ratio is the ratio of the total floor area of a building to the area of the lot on which it sits.
