Consortium of Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh nations development plan could add as many as 26,000 new residents to West Point Grey neighbourhood
for a massive new development on the city’s west side two years ago that would double the current population there.
The proposed increase in housing would make it among the densest of large master-planned new developments in Vancouver, if approved. The previous plan had towers up to 36 stories and many more buildings in the Vancouver style of podiums with towers on top – a design that uses up a lot of space at the ground level. As a result of the changes, there is a larger park space in the middle of the development.
The document says that the MST leaders asked the project team, after the round of consultations in the fall of 2021, to make changes, including adding more housing, more open spaces, additional employment and training opportunities, and “a deeper recognition of the cultural importance of the site.”The latest version will be put out by the city for public feedback and then will come to council for approval in the fall.
