The staff liaison provided a verbal overview of the project. The project team presented details
of the 22 storey apartment building proposed for 22709 Lougheed Highway and answered
questions from the Advisory Design Panel.
R/2020-021
It was moved and seconded
That application 2019-428-DP be supported and the following concerns be addressed as the
design develops and submitted to Planning staff for follow-up:
Architectural Comments:
·Consider adding scaled massing on the east elevation to provide additional levels of
scaling;
·Consider adding intermediate or rooftop outdoor amenity space;
·Consider design techniques or materiality to address overheating concerns on south
and west elevation; and
·Improve access to storage in corners of underground parking due to limited
accessibility when vehicles are parked adjacent.
Landscape Comments:
·Consider reclaiming space in the parking area for amenity or green space;
·Utilize the base between the surface parking and the parkade slab to provide more
trees and additional planting soil;
·Consider applying surface treatment ie. colour, patterning, or texture to pedestrian
routes between the building and mall;
·Vary the seating arrangements between the front plaza and the public sidewalk;
consider L-shaped seating, planting buffers to improve the social interaction;
·The project has a significant amount of bike parking, consider integrating the bike
parking into the seating areas; and
·Provide more planting buffer between the common amenity on Level 2 and adjacent
private units.
