Vancouver's Oakridge, The Living City - Meet The Canadian Mega Project With A Surreal Architecture

Vancouver's The Living City Oakridge - This Canadian Mega Project Will Have A Surreal Architecture QuadReal and Westbank are developing partners. Henriquez Partners Architects is the design lead and Wonderwall out of Tokyo is designing the interior of the mall. Numerous other firms are also involved. The applicants have described the mixed-use development on the sprawling 28-acre site as a "mini-city." It features one and two levels of retail and office space, 10 towers of varying heights up to 44 storeys, three mid-rise buildings with commercial, office and residential uses, the latter of which includes social housing, market rental and market units. A civic centre featuring a community centre, library, senior’s centre, performance spaces and daycare is part of the project, as is a nine-acre public park located partially on the rooftop of the mall and partially at ground level. The park board held an open house about the refined concept for the nine-acre park May 10 and another one is scheduled May 12. See the Courier’s story about the open house here. Rezoning for the site was granted in 2014. Under that zoning, the application is conditional, so it may be permitted, but it requires a decision of the Development Permit Board. The project is scheduled to go before the DPB July 23. Individuals can register to speak at that meeting. Written comments about the development application are accepted until June 15. Build-out will be phased and is expected to take six and a half years to complete. Oakridge Centre is among Canada’s top three most profitable malls. QuadReal and Westbank are partners on the redevelopment project, which, once completed, will feature 10 towers of varying heights up to 44 storeys, as well as midrise buildings. Plans include 2,000 market condo units, 290 market rental units, 290 City of Vancouver-owned below-market rental units, the redevelopment of the shopping centre, commercial and office space, a community centre, a library, a seniors’ centre, performance spaces, a daycare and a nine-acre park. Pricing for market residential units in buildings three and four, which face 41st Avenue, range from upwards of $800,000 to $5.7 million.
