City of Vancouver is moving ahead to engage citizens on changes to the 55-hectare (136-acre) site, owned around 80% by CoV. Currently, density is higher than average in this spectacularly desirable location, now home to around 5,800 people in a mix of condos, co-ops and non-market rentals. 
Since around 60% of homes there are on leased City land, CoV is starting early to plan for lease expirations, which occur mostly in around 20 – 30 years.
There will be a consultation focus on a citizen’s group from the area called *REPlan“.
It will be interesting to see how Gregor spins destroying hundred of units of affordable housing in favour of more towers built by Vision funders.
And will these plans be “Conceptual”, “Detailed”, “Final Conceptual”, or “Final Detailed” plans and labelled as such with definitions of each for clarity to the public, including agreements “in principle”, which are non-agreements by definition, so that the public will know that consultation does not result in any significant changes to the City engineers’ design for the project?
