Pearson Dogwood Policy Statement Relevant Policies
3.2.1 Housing
• Deliver as many independent housing units with supports in the first phases of development.
• Target of 20% affordable housing to be constructed with each phase of development as funding permits. (Exceptions are phases that are predominantly health care housing and services).
The phasing for the development is dependent on a variety of factors, including the development of new health-related facilities on-site, which will allow for the phased demolition of both the Dogwood and Pearson facilities.
The phasing of development begins with the construction of two mixed-use market housing parcels, the YMCA / Community Health Centre with residential above and the Complex Residential Care facility. The development of these parcels first will allow for the relocation of Dogwood
residents and the demolition of the Dogwood facility, as well as the transfer of approximately 50 Pearson residents to new housing. Subsequent phases follow an east to west pattern, again to minimize disruption to Pearson facilities until replacement facilities are constructed.
The majority of the affordable housing units will be constructed in Phase 1, 2 and 3, with the balance delivered in Phase 5.
The City Park and Urban Farm will be delivered in Phase 2 (preferred) or Phase 3 depending on the ability to demolish
the Pearson facilities. Roads will be constructed to allow for vehicular access with temporary roads and/or interim turnaround movements provided until roadworks can be completed upon the demolition of existing facilities.
A Redevelopment Discovery Centre will be constructed in the northwest corner of the site in Phase 1, on an existing parking lot that is slated to be developed last. The location will not disrupt phasing of other parcels, and is intended to provide information to potential future residents and surrounding neighbours regarding the development process.

2.2 Parcel A – Phase 1Parcel A, at the corner of Cambie St. and 59th Ave., is the southeastern gateway to the site. A public walkway runs through this block connecting the southeastern corner to the central open space network beyond at the northwest corner of the block. The walkway opens to a central courtyard and is anchored by public plazas at each end. Two main building masses are defined by the diagonal public space: the eastern portion with residential buildings atop a commercial podium base provide an active street edge for 58th Avenue, Cambie Street and the 59th Avenue corner; and, the western portion with residential buildings also atop a commercial base to the north and a townhome base to the south.
The height of buildings transitions from higher in the north and east to lower in the south and west, reinforcing the site-wide height transition strategy. The two towers, at the northeast and northwest corners of the parcel, have mid-rise extensions. Both building types share stylistic similarities, yet each has clearly articulated massing to appear as separate elements and achieve a fine-grained character consistent with the surrounding residential context. The mid-rise building types have several step backs; the eastern building terminating in a row of three storey townhomes. The form at the southern edge reduces the massing, respects the neighbourhood residential typology, and increases solar penetration to the street level.
Vehicular access to all underground parking and loading is off Internal Street 2. On-street parking is provided on 58th Avenue and Internal Street 2 for short-term commercial and residential visitors.

2.3 Parcel B – Phase 1Parcel B is centrally located with its edges defined by the new Pearson Plaza to the north, the new internal street 2 to the east, a public open space to the south and the new City Park to the west. The parcel includes the Adult Daycare and 144 Complex Residential Care units, in the form of a 5 storey mid-rise building. The design presented may be refined with further stakeholder input.
Minimum setbacks are provided for upper levels on the north, east and west property lines, ensuring the area required for the Residential Care program is achieved. At the ground level, the building façades are recessed from the upper level soffit to create partially covered open spaces protected from the elements for use of the facility residents and Adult Daycare clients. These open spaces will designed in detail with stakeholders, but will include landscaping and a fence with a lockable gate(s) to prevent Adult Daycare clients from wandering directly onto the plaza without supervision.
The building is accessed from internal street 2 with a covered driving loop to the main entrance and a ramp to the parkade. The parkade will be home to a BC Ambulance Station (9 ambulances). The ground floor is comprised of an Adult Daycare on the north face of the building, a multi-purpose room for the use of the residents and a staff room that faces the new City Park. Both the Adult Daycare and the multi-purpose room will open to covered gardens and terraces, which will incorporate lighting into the soffit of the floors above to extend hours of use. The main floor is also occupied by administrative offices, a clinic and service spaces located on the South façade of the building.
The location of the Adult Daycare may be adjusted slightly as required by users. Its proposed location in plan and relationship to the plaza allows clients to take advantage of the activities going on in the plaza either by watching, or by participating under supervision. Extensive floor to ceiling glazing, where appropriate in relation to the activities in the interior, will provide maximum light exposure. In addition, the north exposure ensures that there is no overheating or glare adjacent to the windows, which are both issues that can affect an older adult population.
The four upper floors of the facility will be occupied by 144 residents with 36 residents per floor. Each floor is organized around an internal courtyard located at level 2 that will be designed as a garden with walking loops for the benefit of all the residents.

Figure 2-25: Parcel C – Site PlanParcel C is the main community meeting point of the site. The block is comprised of one building which is bounded by West 57th Avenue to the north, Pearson Plaza to the south, the High Street Commons to the west and Internal Street 2 to the east. The lower levels of the building provide neighbourhood services: including a Community Health Centre, YMCA, therapy pool, and a children’s daycare facility. A residential tower and mid-rise located on the northern edge of the block form the upper levels of the building. The building massing minimizes shadowing on Pearson Plaza, the City Park and the Cambie Street Walk to the east.
The ground level of the building is split between the Community Health Centre (CHC), the YMCA swimming pools and the therapy pool. The CHC is accessed off both West 57th Ave. and Internal Street 2. Both points of egress for the CHC offer lay-bys for Handy DART ease of access. The parkade entrance is located mid-point of the building on the eastern edge off Internal Street 2.
The YMCA swimming pools and conditioning spaces are located on the southern portion of the block on the lower levels. These spaces activate both the Pearson Plaza and the High Street Commons, to the south and west respectively.
The child daycare located on level 3 maximizes the children’s security. More information regarding the daycare can be found on page 64.

2.5 Parcel D – Phase 2Parcel D, located at the northeastern corner of the site at Cambie St. and West 57th Avenue, is the main gateway to the site. A significant public plaza is located at the northeast corner to accommodate the proposed Canada Line station. The transit plaza is connected to the open space network of the Pearson Dogwood site by a generous diagonal walkway. The walkway, lined with commercial uses, terminates at the southern end of the parcel in a second, larger public plaza. The plaza is oriented to the southwest maximizing solar gain and offering views to the Pearson Plaza and City Park. Commercial uses line the plaza edges providing excellent opportunities for outdoor seating.
The shape of the public realm defines the north and south massing. Both buildings have a retail podium base with residential towers and mid-rise buildings above. These towers are the tallest on the site, reinforcing the block’s role as a locus of activity adjacent the station.
The northern portion of the block has a single tower marking the corner of W. 57th Ave. and Internal Street 2 with a mid-rise extension parallel to W. 57th Ave. The northern and southern edges of the north building offer commercial spaces along W. 57th Ave. and the internal public plaza. The southern block has two towers, each with a mid-rise extension. One tower sits at the southern edge of the transit plaza, serving as a landmark and reinforcing the plaza as the site gateway. The tower’s mid-rise extension runs parallel to Cambie Street and terraces at the south defining the southeastern edge of the parcel. The second tower is situated at the southwestern corner of block, serving as a landmark and terminating the view looking east from Heather Street down W. 58th Ave, across the urban farm and Pearson Plaza. The tower has a short, mid-rise extension running parallel to W. 58th Ave. The southern edge of the parcel is defined at the southwest corner by a small plaza that is enhanced by the retention of existing trees. The southern building has commercial spaces activating both W. 58th Ave. and the diagonal southern edge of the public plaza.
Vehicular access to all underground parking and loading is via a ramp on W. 58th Ave. On-street parking is provided on W. 58th Ave. and Internal Street 2 for short-term commercial and residential visitors. The new bus route will travel along these streets in clockwise fashion, and the geometries and dimensions of the new streets will be appropriate for the anticipated bus and service truck movements.

2.7 Parcel F – Phase 3Block F is a square-shaped block bounded on the north by 57th Ave, the Urban Farm on the south, the Internal Street 1 on the west, and Block C on the east. The block includes a large public open space – the High Street Commons – on its eastern side which serves as separation to Block C and a corridor connecting the public realm of 57th Avenue to the City Park and other internal public open spaces. This open space wraps around the south portion of the block in the form of an SRW band that provides an east – west pedestrian linkage at the middle of the site. Vehicular access to the block is provided on the west side by Internal Street 1.
The buildings support the public realm by framing it with appropriately scaled massing and active fronting uses. 57th Avenue has a retail podium at street level along the length of the block. The other three sides of the block have residential uses facing the public realm. Buildings wrap the edges of the block to frame a central private open space with good solar exposure and views south to the City Park. There are two towers, each located at the most visible corners as seen from the public realm. The northeast corner tower anchors the edge of the High Street Commons; the southwest tower anchors the north end of the large open space of the City Park and Urban Farm while functioning, too, as a landmark to the view east along the Internal Street 1. The staggered position of these towers provides more openings in the skyline for views, maximizes unit privacy and reduces the concentration of shadows on 57th Avenue. Each tower has a mid-rise extension that runs in a north-south alignment which reduces shadow impacts and provides balanced solar and view access to units. The tower and mid-rise extension are defined as separate elements by a significant break in the massing on the public realm edge.

2.8 Parcel G – Phase 4Block G is located in the southwestern quadrant of the site, bounded by 59th Ave. in the south, Heather St. in the west, Internal Street 1 in the north and the City Park in the east. Residential buildings frame and animate these public realm elements. The lobbies of four buildings are located on the bounding public streets; the remaining three buildings have lobbies facing the internal private driveways. The block has a large and contiguous interior open space that is visually and physically connected to the surrounding public realm, made possible by generous spaces between the buildings and a continuous SRW pathway from the southwest corner to the edge of the City Park. Additional open space is provided at the southeast corner of the block by way of a pocket park, a small green space created by pulling back several buildings in order to retain a small group of mature trees. Vehicular access to the block is from Internal Street 1 via two private driveways that connect to underground parking ramps. Vehicle turnarounds are provided for the convenience of residents. The two driveways are not connected in order to prioritize soft over hard landscape and to reduce traffic impacts to adjacent units.
The buildings in this block transition in height from mid-rise to low rise from north to south, and their upper floors stepped back at the edges of the public realm. This massing provides a comfortable transition to and interface with the existing single family homes on the south side of 59th Ave, the open spaces on the west side of Heather St. and the City Park. A single mid-height tower is located at the northeast corner of the site, consistent with the policy an increasing height gradient towards the proposed transit station at 57th and Cambie. The tower’s location, at the corner of the Urban Farm and City Park, is an important cross roads in the overall site, and the tower height and unique shape reinforce this location by being a landmark. Shadowing of the public realm by the tower is minimized because it is at the north part of the site and therefore only casts shadow on the Urban Farm at the late part of the afternoon. The mid-rise building to its south is kept low in order to minimize park shadowing.

2.9 Parcel H – Phase 5This rectangular-shaped block is located at the site’s northwest corner. It is bounded by 57th Ave. in the north, the Internal Street 1 in the east and south, and Heather St. in the west. It functions as the site’s northwest gateway, and because the 57th Ave. / Heather St. intersection is comprised of open space at the other three corners, the site’s corner is very prominent and therefore its design particularly important in reinforcing this gateway. Accordingly, a uniquely shaped building is located here, and it plus a second building on Heather frame a pocket park at the corner. The bounding public realm of the block is framed and animated by residential buildings. Internal to these buildings is a large open space that provides a diagonal connection and SRW pathway from the northwest corner to the southeast corner, linking with other pathways through the site. The interior open space has strong visual and physical linkages with the surrounding public realm by way of generous spaces between the buildings.
The buildings are generally a mid-rise height so that they appropriately frame the surrounding streets and strike a balance between minimizing view obstruction and shadowing, while offering views to the surrounding open space and further to such landmarks as Mt. Baker and the North Shore mountains. A single mid-height tower is located at the southeast corner of the block, providing a landmark as viewed from the eastern portions of the site across the Urban Farm. This tower has a mid-rise extension running in a north-south orientation in order to minimize shadowing and view obstruction. The tower and mid-rise elements are defined by a significant break in the massing at their interface point.
