3.1 Edible Landscaping

Orchard (fruit) trees will be integrated at the rooftop of rental building near the garden plots

area. They will be limited to these controlled spaces as to not impact the public realm.

Similarly, there will be orchard trees on the west side of the children’s playground area,

adjacent the garden plots. Functionally, they will help to create a buffer between the childcare

area and the adjacent residences. Additionally, they could be used as a learning tool by the

childcare to educate children on sustainable food systems.

The selection of fruit trees will be determined in the later stages of the design, and will follow

the guidelines identifying the Common Toxic Landscape Plants.

3.0 Sustainable Food Systems

To help cultivate food resources locally in support of producing a less carbon intensive food

supply, community vegetable gardens, orchards, outdoor kitchens and onsite organics

management will be developed. This multiple design approach intends on delivering a variety

of different food assets to ensure residents have access to a minimum of three sustainable

food systems in-line with the City of Vancouver’s Food Strategy (2013), Greenest City Action

Plan (GCAP 2011), and other food related policies.

3.2 Community Gardens

Located on the Rental building common roof space, a number of garden plots have been

established for building occupants. The intent of theses plots is to provide residents with

space to cultivate and develop gardens for the purpose of growing a variety of different

vegetables. By helping to promote sustainable independent living, it also creates a

social space for interaction between tenants of the rental building. In doing so, it helps

to enhance the human behavior of rental building by instilling a sense of ownership, rather

than transience, a factor which has long plagued the social attributes of downtown rental

buildings. The plots will be managed by the rental residential community with support from

FBC, under a non-profit organization which is capable of keeping the plots openly accessible

to the residents.

Mindfully located on the roof space, the plots are intending to optimize sun exposure, without

exposing the gardens to excessive winds or other environmental elements detrimental to plant

growth. Wind analysis is currently being performed to better understand the microclimatic

effects and which vegetable crops are best suited. On the roof, the garden planters will be

within 2-3’ deep, and limited to 8’ to allow for accessible use.

In the Childcare outdoor area, the landscape design will allow for children’s garden plots

on the west end of the playground, allowing the 3-5 child group to learn and experience

cultivation.

In the Market tower, residents will have private balconies of significant size, typically

much larger than 100 SF for family units, which allow plenty of space for private gardens.

Furthermore, the semi-private outdoor garden courts also allow opportunity for

residents to have small communal gardening at their front porch.

Early wind analysis has indicated that pedestrian comfort and gardens on the breezeway

would benefit from shielding from the Northwest driving wind forces. As such, the design

team has implemented wind screens at the north end of the breezeway to sustain more

moderate microclimates that allow for various activities such as sitting, interacting and

gardening. From a social perspective, these gardens will again encourage participation and

neighborliness at each floor.

3.4 On-Site Organics Management

A preliminary composting area has been established on the roof of the rental residential

building to help manage organic waste produced through the food production in the garden

plots. The system will be selected to help convert rental residential organics into arable soils

for use in the Community Garden plots.

To further support the City of Vancouver’s waste diversion goals for organics, storage space

within each of the building’s waste collections areas has been allotted for the separation and

collection of organics.

3.3 Community KitchensThe heart of the community

With support from the First Baptist Church and their existing kitchen serving the local homeless

community, the project intends on improving the existing facility to meet the Church’s desire

for increased outreach to the community, in response to a growing need for homeless shelter

and emergency support. For many years, the FBC has hosted a shelter night that includes

healthy, balanced dinners for approximately 150 people, where 30 people then choose

to spend the night (hot breakfast is also served in the morning). This program is supported in

part of by neighboring grocery store.

Although intended for use of the current community kitchen is by the Shelter Program

participants, the FBC is planning to continue is frequented use by residents of local SRO’s

(single Room Occupancies). The Community Kitchen has created a safe and friendly

environment where many participants have acquired new skills and fostered long and

lasting relationships. FBC is eager to expand their kitchen services as part of their Church

upgrade and expansion.

An exterior kitchen on the rental building rooftop is designed specifically for the preparation of

the vegetables grown within the community garden plots, to increase culinary skills and create

a space for social circles and gatherings of neighbors and visitors. Furthermore, a common

room with a kitchen will be provided on the ground floor to allow for social gatherings and

community interaction between residents.

Equipment provided within either of the proposed kitchens will be selected to satisfy the intent

of the programming yet to be finalized.

4.0 Green Mobility(Refer to Full Green Mobility Plan by Bunt and Associates)

The site is located in a dense downtown urban core, with optimum connectivity to

pedestrian, bicycle and public transit options. Within a 400 m radius (approx. 5-minute

walk) there are four different bus lines, while within 800 m (approx. 10-minute walk) lies access

to three Skytrain stations providing service to the rest of Vancouver and its surrounding cities.

This affords the proposed development a distinct advantage for car-less commuters. Access

to the Burrard cyclist and pedestrian paths and their connection to the Stanley Park Seawall

also allows for an enhanced biking and walking experience.

The site is also located within a vast cycling network. To promote the use of this network,

bicycle storage and end of trip facilities will be provided for the occupants and visitors to

First Baptist Church and both residential towers. The project will provide approximately 465

Class A and 18 Class B Bike stalls for the market, rental and church facilities combined.

The project encourages green mobility by providing two publicly accessible car share

vehicles on site, as well as an Eco-Wheels program consisting of 3 low-emitting vehicles

and 12 bikes as part of this private car and bike share program for market condo

residents.

Being located within close proximity to extensive public transportation, the Burrard and

Nelson Development promotes the use of these services to its occupants. It is anticipated

the established access to local transit and bicycle network should significantly improve the

percentage of trips taken in support of the City of Vancouver’s Transportation 2040 targets.

When alternative forms of transportations are exhausted and vehicular transportation is

required, electric vehicle charging stations will be provided to promote low-emitting vehicles.

Furthermore, the project will is exploring locations for providing exterior trash bins with

integrated recycling and organics compartments. The selection of these units will be

considered for their functional and aesthetic characteristics to best suit the design of the

site. By providing the space and the opportunity to easily divert organic waste from

the garbage waste stream, organics can be composted offsite to produce high quality

soil and avoid the landfill waste stream.

5.0 Stormwater Management

Refer to full Stormwater Management Report

Though solutions are still under exploration, a preliminary investigation has concluded

that volume retention of approximately 144 m3 would be sufficient to limit the post

development runoff rate and volume to achieve a 50% reduction from the peak two

year pre-development runoff rate and volume. As identified, currently this retention will

be provided at the L0 Level parkade, adjacent the entry ramp, where its centralized location

allows for the collection of storm water from the entity of the site before entering the City of

Vancouver’s system.

In addition to the retention of storm water to manage rate and quantity, a Stormceptor

system has been included in line between the retention tank and City connection to remove

suspended solids within the runoff.

The system will use a cyclonic action to help remove particulates with an 88% efficiency

and will treat, at a minimum, 90% of the project’s storm water runoff.

5.2 Potable Water Reduction

5.1 Water Management

The project will address potable water management through two design approaches. Firstly,

water conservation will be mitigated through low-flow plumbing fixtures. The project will be

targeting a 40% reduction in potable water use for rental residential fixtures and a 30%

reduction in potable water in potable water use for market residential fixtures plumbing

fixtures. Secondly, the project’s landscaping design will be selected to be drought

resistant and make use of moisture content based irrigation controls to demonstrate a

50% reduction in potable water use for irrigation.

The intent of the project is to establish a smart and integrated approach to reducing demand

on the City of Vancouver’s water services and limit the waste of potable treated water supplies.

Treated as separate issues to be addressed, a potable water consumption target has been

established as a means of reducing the treated water demand for the project, while a storm

water management strategy has been established to limit the project’s potential strain on the

City’s existing storm water system.

6.0 Building Waste ManagementA Revolutionary Approach to Waste Collection in Towers

A Zero Waste Operations Plan will be developed in partnership with the tenants to ensure

a collaborative and realistic operational model. In an effort to encourage waste diversion

through accessibility, the project will include spaces for the diversion of mixed papers, mixed

containers, cardboard, and compostables. Additional programming to address electronics,

mercury containing products or other unique waste types will be considered as the building

programming is finalized.

The value and treatment of waste will be an ongoing discussion, with innovative solutions

anticipated to allow for a whole system approach to the specific requirements of this

Development.

Developing an effective system to address suite garbage collection and recycling in high

rises has long been a challenge facing Vancouver and cities around the world. The City’s

recent requirements for the separation of organic waste has added a unique set of challenges

in a residential high rise situation, but also offers the opportunity for creative responses to

the challenge. The project is currently exploring a revolutionary new waste and recycling

collection system that will be mechanized and personalized to each floor of the high-

rise. A double deck elevator installation will bring the garbage and recycling bins to each

floor when called, reducing the challenge of each resident transporting waste to a centralized

room. There is also the potential for this ‘service cab’ to serve as a move in/out elevator and to

transport bicycles and wet/muddy pets, reducing wear and tear on the main elevator finishes.

6.1 Zero Waste Planning

Refer to full Zero Waste Planning Report

To minimize waste produced during the demolition, construction and operations of the project,

the design team has established specific waste diversion targets for the demolition and

construction phases. In addition to diverting construction waste, expansive and adaptable

waste and recycling spaces have been identified within the buildings.

6.2 Demolition and Construction Waste Management

Construction waste management will be an integral part of the building process, firstly

targeting source minimization through smart product selection, packaging and transport.

Furthermore, waste generated onsite during construction will be addressed through a

comprehensive waste management plan, detailing recycling facilities and documenting the

diversion of standard debris from landfill. For the entirety of the project’s demolition and

construction, a target of 75% diversion has been identified.

To further improve the recyclability of the project at the end of its lifecycle, recycled

content will be sought in the materials selection process through steel, concrete, and glass

components, reducing the impact of extracting virgin resources for this development. These

recycled materials retain their high value in the recycling chain, so once the service life of

the proposed buildings come to an end, re-use and integration into new building materials

is a viable option.


7.0 Affordable Housing

Moreover, both the market and residential components of the project are strategically planned

to provide a significantly large percentage of family units (2 bedrooms +). Currently, the

market tower is providing 75% family units, and the rental building 40% family units.

This is a great contribution to a much needed housing type, especially in the downtown core.

The project is proposing more twice the amount of replacement housing as currently on site

with more than twice as much replacement area. Furthermore, FBC is committed to assisting

those in need including providing one of the most important needs –housing and shelter.

FBC or an affiliate will own the 50,000 sf of rental housing and anticipates committing to

rent 80% of the anticipated 66 rental units at affordable rates. The affordable units would

be rented to seniors, families, and others in need at no more than HILS rates.

It should be stressed that this is a significant private commitment to provide affordable

non-profit housing that will not require operating subsidies from either BC Housing or

the City. It will be owned and operated by a non-profit organization affiliated with the

Church.

The City of Vancouver’s goal is to increase the supply of affordable housing in Vancouver

with a broad range of dwelling types to meet the needs of a diverse population.

In 2011, the city adopted its Housing and Homelessness Strategy to address Vancouver’s

significant housing challenges and looks at increasing the variety of Affordable Housing

options across the entire housing continuum. This plan advocates for improved choice and

affordability in housing for all residents of the city.

Three strategic directions define the Housing and Homelessness Strategy:

• Increase the supply of Affordable Housing.

• Encourage a housing mix across all neighborhoods that enhance quality of life.

• Provide strong leadership and support partners to enhance housing stability.

The project helps to accomplish the goals identified in this strategy. The transformed site

will add to the inventory and diversity of affordable housing - with different unit types

housing families to seniors, offering a variety of tenure options from affordable rental

to market housing, and providing shelter to those in need.

L0 level ungerground parkade plan identifying DES room for future connection

8.1 DES Connection

Though a water based system was chosen primarily for its efficiency, it also allows for the

system to be easily converted and connected to a centralized District Energy System (DES)

when such an option becomes available to the site. This potential adaptation would allow for

the developments energy to be supplied as part of a large network utilizing centralized heating

and cooling equipment to maximize energy efficiency and further reduce the carbon footprint

of the buildings’ energy use.

The project site is currently intending to connect to the future DES system as it becomes

available to the site. To support this future connection, conversations have been initiated

with Creative Energy (the proposed utility provider engaged to establish a low carbon energy

solution for the West End of Vancouver) to support their screening of the community. The

project’s energy demand was provided to help in the estimation of the system requirements

based on the buildings’ intention to connect to the DES and the proposed areas within the

project’s mechanical space was identified to ensure that the future connection can be easily

established.

The project is committed to working collaboratively with the city to help reduce overall GHG

emissions for this project and the city as a whole. As such, the project intends to contribute

financially to the broader low carbon West End feasibility study currently underway.

8.0 Low Carbon Energy

To satisfy the conditions outlined through the City of Vancouver’s Green Building Policies

for rezoning and larger sustainable sites, an energy reduction target of 22% reduction in

energy use (by cost based on ASHRAE 90.1 2010 baseline) was established for the Market

and Rental Residential Towers including the Church Amenity Space located within the two

buildings’ ground levels. In the context of the project’s total square footage the targeted EUI

for the project is to be no greater than 115 kWh/m2/ yr. In the selection of the building’s

mechanical systems, the future Low Carbon District Energy System was also considered.
