Intent of the Rezoning The project fits the parameters of the Downtown District Zone with respect to height and massing. This social housing project requires rezoning as the proposed density exceeds the maximum conditional FSR of 6.0 with a total of 6.93 FSR. Site and Context The 6,000 sq. ft. project site is situated just east of Victory Square, on the north side of West Pender Street in the block opposite the Sun Tower. This mid-block site sits in an area with a distinctive historic character. An exception to the area's character is the above grade City owned parkade that dominates the block opposite the site. The project site is currently zoned DD (Downtown District) which allows a mixture of uses on the site, including residential, office, hotel and retail uses. The Downtown Official Development Plan (DODP) allows a floor space ratio (FSR) of up to 5.0 FSR and a basic maximum height of 22.9 m (75 ft.). For sites with a maximum frontage of 23 m (75 ft.), a density of up to 6.0 FSR and height of up to 32 m (105 ft.) may be considered for social housing projects. This project is a social housing project. The subject property is a 50' by 120' deep site that is currently vacant. It has a significant slope from a high point at the south-west corner down to the north-east corner with a total drop of over one storey 3.58 m (11' - 9”). The sidewalk on Pender has a severe cross fall from a high point on the west side down to the east that is close to exceeding the maximum allowable slope for handicap ramps at 8.73%. The lane drops at just under 5%. Purpose of the Development The principle focus of the development is to provide affordable dwelling units for lower income residents living in the DTES, and support the growth and diversity of the Victory Square neighbourhood. Under the local guidelines, micro suites at 250 ft² (net to inside face of party, exterior and corridor walls) are permitted. Utilizing the micro suite form will provide the opportunity to house as many people as possible, while recognizing and strengthening the historic form and scale of the Victory Square Neighbourhood. Appropriate frontages and the use of modulating heights reflect the historic character of the older buildings in the area. The 10 storey development proposes 90 units all at or above the minimum 250 ft². Residential floors are configured around a courtyard located on the eastside of the building. Two units face north into the courtyard while one is oriented to look east. The north wall of the courtyard is currently blank as it is the back of a unit that looks north over the lane. The storey at-grade related to Pender Street is primarily an amenity level that provides an entrance for residents on the western half of the frontage and an amenity area on the eastern half of the floor facing the street. The northern portion of the floor contains 4 residential units. With the steep grade change from Pender down to the lane, these units are situated one storey above the lane. Given the small footprint of the site, the affordability target, and the Downtown location, no parking is provided. The lane level is being utilized for building services and bike storage. An apron of space between the lane and the building permits a class 'a' loading space. Planning Context: Applicable Zoning, Policies and Guidelines The project site is within the Victory Square area of the Downtown Eastside Plan, which allows consideration for rezoning for residential projects where there are public benefits. Public benefits include social housing, secured market rental housing, and/or heritage building rehabilitation.

For sites with a maximum frontage of 23 m (75 ft.), adensity of up to 6.0 FSR and height of up to 32 m (105 ft.) may be considered for socialhousing projects. This project is a social housing project.

The subject property is a 50' by 120' deep site that is currently vacant. It has asignificant slope from a high point at the south-west corner down to the north-eastcorner with a total drop of over one storey 3.58 m (11' - 9”). The sidewalk on Pender hasa severe cross fall from a high point on the west side down to the east that is close toexceeding the maximum allowable slope for handicap ramps at 8.73%. The lane dropsat just under 5%.

Purpose of the Development

The principle focus of the development is to provide affordable dwelling units for lowerincome residents living in the DTES, and support the growth and diversity of the VictorySquare neighbourhood. Under the local guidelines, micro suites at 250 ft² (net to insideface of party, exterior and corridor walls) are permitted. Utilizing the micro suite formwill provide the opportunity to house as many people as possible, while recognizingand strengthening the historic form and scale of the Victory Square Neighbourhood.Appropriate frontages and the use of modulating heights reflect the historic character ofthe older buildings in the area.

The 10 storey development proposes 90 units all at or above the minimum 250 ft².Residential floors are configured around a courtyard located on the eastside of thebuilding. Two units face north into the courtyard while one is oriented to look east. Thenorth wall of the courtyard is currently blank as it is the back of a unit that looks northover the lane.

The storey at-grade related to Pender Street is primarily an amenity level that providesan entrance for residents on the western half of the frontage and an amenity area on theeastern half of the floor facing the street. The northern portion of the floor contains 4residential units. With the steep grade change from Pender down to the lane, theseunits are situated one storey above the lane.

Given the small footprint of the site, the affordability target, and the Downtown location,no parking is provided. The lane level is being utilized for building services and bikestorage. An apron of space between the lane and the building permits a class 'a' loadingspace.

Victory Square 70' Height Limit

The Victory Square guidelines note that heights should vary on principle streetscreating a “saw tooth” pattern. A maximum street face height of 70 feet should beapplied. Where the building exceeds 70 feet the upper storeys should be setback fromthe main façade about 8 feet. The 8th, 9th and 10th floors of the building have beensetback just over 11' - 9” in response to this concern. Additionally the 11' - 9" setback isin compliance with the Pender Street setback requirements outlined in the DTES Plan.

Lane Setback

The power lines in the lane, dictate a minimum setback of 7' - 6” above the first floor torespect the minimum distance Work Safe BC requires from transformer connectors.Through discussions with Planning, the preference would be for that the lane setback isexpanded to 20 feet to improve the livability for units on the lane. However the buildingon the north side of the lane is a three storey class 'C' heritage building reducesconcerns for livability. The north façade from level two up is setback 10' - 3” (3.1 m)from the lane.

Courtyard

The Victory Square Guidelines suggest a minimum clear width of 30 feet for courtyards(Sec. 2.6.3a). While the proposed courtyard is 24' - 3“ (7.4 m) in the north-southdimension, its eastern aspect will have continuous access to eastern light as theadjacent Avalon Hotel's roof will remain at four storeys about 25' ± above the lowestpoint in the courtyard at the proposed building's third floor. The three units facing thecourtyard achieve the minimum horizontal angle of daylight of 12'.

Variances

Resident Bulk-Storage

Typically studios, all apartments and dwellings have been required to provide 25 ft² ofbulk storage for each unit. Recently, some consideration has been given to makingsimilar provisions for micro suites as well. There is a challenge however with providingthis additional floor and keeping the development within its affordability targets. In thecase of 177 West Pender Street, the additional concern is the available floor area is at apremium. Building another level underground proved to have significant challengeswith heritage buildings on either side of the subject property. It was determined theinternal area of Level 2 should be used for unit storage instead of lowering the eastsidecourtyard down beyond level 3 to provide three more units. In utilizing the availablearea on the Lane level and the internal space on the second floor, 9 ft² of storage canbe provided for each unit.

Vehicle and Bicycle Parking

Parking has not been provided in the development. Given the emphasis towardaffordability and the proximity to transit and services, the client base isn't anticipated torequire vehicles. As a 50' wide site and the frontage at the lane level being devoted toutilities, the opportunities for parking is extremely limited. The lane level is devotedlargely for bike parking and utilities. This issue has been reviewed by Planning. To ourunderstanding, Planning supports the relaxation of the required vehicle parking spacesas a social housing project with a focus on affordability.

For a social housing project of this size, the Parking By-law requires a minimum of 68Class A and 6 Class B bicycle parking spaces. The project provides 68 class A bicyclespaces using racks. Class B bicycle spaces will need to be negotiated to see how theymight fit with the required sidewalk treatment.

Housing and Amenity

Affordability: All residential units are proposed as rental housing at or below marketrents.. One-third of the units will be rented at the shelter rate of income assistance,one-third at housing income limits (HILS) rates, and the remaining units renting at up tomarket rates. This meets the minimum requirement for social housing in this area of theDowntown Eastside.

Amenity Space: The indoor amenity space requirement is 15 ft² per unit which equalsa total of 1,350 ft². Level one has been reconfigured to provide an indoor amenityspace of 2,200 ft² with frontage onto Pender Street.

Design Approach

The project is a zero lot line development focused on maximizing the allowableenvelope to provide as many social housing units as possible. It takes intoconsideration, the Downtown Eastside Community Plan and Victory Square Guidelines.Recognizing the historic character of the area, the project includes design elementsthat place an emphasis on street wall consistency and articulated setbacks. It places anemphasis on the neighbouring massing ensuring that the thoughtful transition in formand scale remains in the Victory Square neighbourhood.

Keeping in mind the typical Victory Square streetscape rhythms, the project utilizes thearea's historic emphasis on the individual bay widths in facade patterning that can befound throughout the neighbourhood. A projected cornice at level 2 defines thetwo-storey base of the building which is similar to the neighbouring character buildingsalong the West Pender streetscape. The 70' height limit for frontages in Victory Squareis defined by stepping the building back above level 7 on Pender Street. A projectedcornice expression further differentiates the stepping and scale of the building, addinga balance to the design and relating to the adjacent neighbouring buildings.

East and West Blind Walls

Materials with a high quality of finish will be used on blank east and west sidewalls inorder to modulate those facades. The intention is to use a change in colour in arepetitive shape that mimics the size and rhythm of the windows on the north and southelevations.

Outdoor Space

All the units have been provided with large windows and Juliette balconies or will haveaccess to a patio or balcony.

A shared outdoor space is proposed on the third floor, approximately 49.7 m2 (542 ft2) insize. In addition to this, four units facing north on Level 10 have been removed forbuilding height compliance and to provide an additional of 109.7 m2/ (1,181.2 ft2) ofcommon outdoor space. Each space is large enough for a feature tree.
