The MacLaren Project Type: Mixed Use Site Size: 22,500 SF Gross Buildable Area: 205,000 SF Number of Units: 235 Project Status: Rezoning / Pre-Construction Location: Edmonton, AB An innovative reimagining of the historic Buena Vista Building on the corner of 124th Street and 102nd Avenue, The MacLaren will consist of a 25-storey tower atop commercial space within the existing iconic building.

Looks pretty solid. Nothing great, but definitely good filler. I think it's good they didn't put in a fake historic podium, and instead went with a modern one to contrast the existing older building.

BYLAW 17177 BYLAW 17178 FILE: LDA14-0560 OLIVER DESCRIPTION: AMENDMENT TO THE OLIVER AREA REDEVELOPMENT PLAN ZONING BYLAW AMENDMENT from (CB1) Low Intensity Business Zone to (DC1) Direct Development Control Provision; OLIVER LOCATION: 12327 -102 Avenue NW, 10127 and 10131 -124 Street NW Located east of 124 Street NW and south of 102 Avenue NW LEGAL DESCRIPTION: Lot 1, 2 and 3, Block 19, Plan RN 22 APPLICANT: ParioPlan #605 10080 Jasper Avenue NW Edmonton AB T5J 1V9 OWNER: Edgar Development Corporation ACCEPTANCE OF APPLICATION: December 11, 2014 EXISTING DEVELOPMENT: A two storey commercial building, the historic Buena Vista building and the annex from the 1950s _______________________________________________________ SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT’S RECOMMENDATION: That the Bylaw 17177 to amend the Oliver Area Redevelopment Plan (ARP) be APPROVED That Bylaw 17178 to amend the Zoning Bylaw from (CB1) Low Intensity Business Zone to (DC1) Direct Development Control Provision be APPROVED. 1 1. The Application This application contains two components. The first component, Bylaw 17177, proposes to amend the Oliver Area Redevelopment Plan (ARP) to allow a high rise mixed-use development east of 124 Street NW and south of 102 Street NW, within the Sub Area 1 of the Oliver ARP. The second component, Bylaw 17178, proposes to rezone the subject site from (CB1) Low Intensity Business Zone to (DC1) Direct Development Control Provision to allow for the dismantling and reassembling of the north, south, and west façades of the historic Buena Vista building, and the development of an 85 metre or a maximum of 26 storey apartment high building with commercial/retail uses at street level. The proposed building will contain a maximum of 240 units with 4 levels of underground parking containing approximately 229 vehicular parking stalls. The proposed development also includes: • a design that conserves and reassembles the original 1912 design Buena Vista building facades; • a commitment to maintain the three historic facades; • a commitment to conserve the historic painted commercial sign on the south façade of the Buena Vista building; • a quasi-public front courtyard located along 124 Street; and • roof top patios and outdoor amenity spaces for the residents. The original proposal received by Sustainable Development included a complete application to designate the Buena Vista building/facades as a Historic Resource. However, after assessing the time required to complete the Historic Resource Designation application with their construction timeline, and given that the proposed development does not require compensation/funding from the City’s Heritage Reserve Fund, the applicant has decided to withdraw the application. The three historic facades, will instead be conserved through the (DC1) Direct Development Control Provision and a maintenance agreement. All costs associated with the conservation, including the cost of dismantling and reassembly of the three historic facades, will be borne by owner/developer. JUSTIFICATION Sustainable Development recommends that Bylaw 17177 to amend the Oliver Neighbourhood Redevelopment Plan and that Bylaw 17178 to amend the Zoning Bylaw from (CB1) Low Intensity Residential Zone to (DC1) Direct Development Control Provision Zone be APPROVED on the basis that the proposed development: - allows for the conservation of three facades of the historic Buena Vista buildings; - is in accordance with The Way We Grow and the Oliver ARP; - provides an efficient use of existing infrastructure; - allows for the intensification along a pedestrian oriented commercial corridor and a Transit Avenue; and - meets all technical requirements of Civic Departments and utility agencies. www.edmonton.ca - April 27, 2015 |
I like it.
I'm I seeing this right, room for 11 garbage bins? |
Seems a little excessive for the number of units.
|
That courtyard is so fantastic! Great addition to the community of Oliver.
|
At Council now, sounds like it should pass, construction by summer.
|
|
Deconstruction to begin this or next week we are hearing.

Work has begun on this site, demo of current buildings on going.
