#1
DCB Development Canada Inc and Masri O Architects are proposing a 6 floor development at 83-85 Hickory Street West & 265-267 Hemlock Street West.

Containing 162 units (for a total of 203 bedrooms), it aims to develop "high-quality condominium units for young professional individuals and couples, as well as students, seniors, and families; as well as individuals interested in downsizing to smaller footprint living" in 1 bedroom, 1 bedroom + den and 2 bedroom units. Typical amenities are included. 57 parking spaces are proposed, contained entirely within an underground parking structure. A total of 57 bicycle parking spaces both underground and outside are proposed. No commercial space is within the plan.

Not that many bike spots. Fortunately that can be retrofitted a lot more easily than car parking.

If we’re going to have a parking minimum, it should be one bicycle parking spot per bedroom.

Not too bad. Hopefully those big blank panels aren't stucco.

Hickory and Hemlock? How can it end up being anything other than student housing?

Nevermind, I was referring to 298 hemlock.
