This caught my eye right away.
The company, founded in 2003, also plans to reclassify a surplus office land site near Stampede Station to accommodate a 300-unit multifamily development.
Also this. Glad to see the city move quickly on this.
The news follows a Land Use Bylaw amendment made by the city in June which makes it easier to attain permission to repurpose office spaces, giving landlords and developers greater flexibility with their assets while downtown-office vacancy soars to 25 per cent.
The amendment abolished the requirement for a development permit to convert an office to a residential building. Now, in most cases, only a building permit is required.
