The Proposal

19 social housing units with indoor and outdoor amenity spaces to be owned by the City of Vancouver and operated by a not-for-profit organization.

75 market condominium units, including 23 studios, 25 one-bedroom units, 19 two-bedroom units, and 8 three-bedroom units.

The design includes incorporating the bricks from the existing historic facades of the Brickhouse on Main Street and the taxi stand on Union Street.

Retail units along Main and Union Streets will reflect the area’s aesthetic with overhead doors that allow market stalls to open to the sidewalks.

The project team is working with descendants of Vie Moore to create a meaningful piece to commemorate the history of the area and support activation of the laneway.

The retail unit at the corner of Union Street and the laneway will open to the laneway, supporting activity and pedestrian amenity. Bonnis has agreed to a Right of First Refusal with the Hogan’s Alley Society for this retail unit to support economic opportunities for the African Descent community.
