OCH Geyser Place [3380 Jockvale Rd] | 12+35m | 3+9f | Proposed
Ottawa Community Housing Corporation (OCH) is proposing the construction of a Phase 2 of their Geyser Place project, a Planned Unit Development (PUD) with a 9-storey (30.5 metres) multi-unit residential building and a 3-storey (11.7 metres) stacked dwelling. The apartment building is proposed to have 99 units and the stacked dwelling is proposed to have 18 units for a total of 117 units. The proposed 9-storey apartment building will have a four-storey podium.
In total, 31 new parking spaces are proposed. Ten (10) visitor parking spaces are proposed in front of the apartment building and an underground parking garage with twenty-one (21) parking spaces for residents and staff is proposed underneath the apartment building. All parking is proposed to the accessed via the Phase 1 private way along Branch Street in one consolidated access/egress location for both phases on development. The proposed stacked dwellings are oriented towards Branch Street and reflect the built form and height of the neighbouring residential development. Set back towards Jockvale Road and Longfields Drive, the proposed four-storey podium of the apartment building provides a transition from the abutting low-rise buildings to a midrise height. The 5-9-storey portion of the building is located closest to the high-volume road and provides ample transition in height and massing from the existing low-rise community.
