WE BELIEVE

WE BELIEVE

• Cities should aspire to authentic legibility over time.

• Authentic, distinguished cities benefit economically over time.

• Economic investment in placemaking compounds itself over time.

• Relevant placemaking strengthens community identity over time.

INDENTITY THROUGH LEGIBILITY

New development opportunity should reinforce the legibility of the downtown’s recognized dome‐shaped skyline when viewed from longer distances. Appropriate form and scale to “fill the gaps” can strengthen the image of the city. 

From the Council approved West End Plan

GRANVILLE + 70TH AVENUE

TOD COMMENTARY: “Alternative form of development emphasizing “processional” role of Granville Street, while introducing mid‐rise form over large format grocery store, would have reduced apparent project scale while increasing overall floor area in support of the local TOD “heart”.”

TOD COMMENTARY: “More direct integration with the east side upper platform towards 24/7 access to cultural amenities (movie theatres) would have increased pedestrian vibrancy, CPTED performance and retail viability.”

TOD COMMENTARY: “Large scale, transformative initiative for long standing suburban mall appropriately announces the stature of this important TOD location at the nexus of two significant cross‐town transit lines, at a topographic high point in the city, while introducing new large scale, locally serving recreational and cultural amenities.  An array of slim tower forms maximizes ground oriented public open space footprint, and related solar performance, while minimizing impact on prevailing lease arrangements with longstanding tenants towards overall project viability.”

BROADWAY‐ ARBUTUS TO MAIN ST

TOD COMMENTARY: “Undergrounding of transit service between Main and Arbutus Streets, if properly designed and funded, could transform the Broadway Corridor into a “Great Street” by eliminating the 2 outboard parking lanes, thus reducing the road section from 6 to 4 lanes, in favor of new public realm investment and placemaking.”

TOD COMMENTARY: “Greater height, and related mixed use capacity, would have increased civic stature for such an important TOD location at the nexus of 2 major underground transit alignments.”

TOD COMMENTARY: “Integration of existing Expo Line Station into large scale mixed use development could increase TOD commercial, office and residential capacities immediately proximic to the station while also achieving new market value towards more efficient land use including new grocery store facility and an array of public open spaces with excellent solar exposure.  Potential integrated TOD form of development could also emphasize the “community heart” at 10th Avenue and Commercial Drive by increasing  transit patronage towards animating public open spaces, improving 24/7 vibrancy, enhancing locally serving commercial viability and CPTED performance.”
