    Apparently the development has “90% less parking than is stipulated by Vancouver by-laws” which is bloody fantastic for the house pricing. Having to build underground parking supposedly adds $100+k per home cost for a condo tower.

      I imagine they would also embrace car-sharing networks, right? Seems like a very intuitive way of maximizing flexibility without requiring extensive underground parking lots. Either way, something that the Burnaby developments could take notes from.

        I believe they’re also wanting the millenium line UBC extension to have a Jericho station. That’s still quite a ways away but it’s good that they’re keeping it in mind for the project.
