East 1ST Fourplex Development

East 1^ST Fourplex Development, North Vancouver

The proposed development and its character is consistent with the recent developments in the neighbour and responds to the vision anticipated for this area.

The orientation and design take the advantages of grade changes and ocean view.

Ground floor units along the street are raised to allow for light for the lock off suites at basement and also provide spatial separation between the public and private yards.

Massing is broken into two buildings and stepped down at lower levels softening the mass of the building and respecting the neighbouring single-family houses.

Each unit has a safe pedestrian pathway toward the street and side walks and is located in close proximity to the transit and amenities.

The building orientation responds to the site setting by facing E. 2nd Street and the lane.

From architectural point of view facades are designed to create a visually appealing structure. The architectural language demonstrates a modern contemporary character with set coast traditional impression. The modern design concept along with contrast in material and colour create lively appealing interest and articulation.
