1649 East Broadway Apartments

Features and Amenities

There would be 114 rental apartments in all, with 23 made cheaper in the reworked plan. It’s not too late in submitting your thoughts to the city council.

Nine studios, 48 one-bedroom apartments, 31 two-bedroom units, and three three-bedroom units make up the amended suite breakdown, which now includes 91 market rentals averaging 388 square feet in size, 495 square feet on average, and 932 square feet. 

The realtor will offer each apartment a fair price to residents and investors, from the three studios to the five two-bedroom flats to the three three-bedroom houses.

The new apartment site in Vancouver has a dynamic facade with balconies organized in a semi-random pattern, while the use of brick walls helps reduce sound and contributes to the building’s energy efficiency. 

Roof decks that face the busiest street are created when the residential floors rise due to increasing east and west building setbacks. Enclosed balconies and solid walls on the East Broadway facades will reduce noise and improve energy efficiency.

An outdoor recreational space on the seventh story is also possible because of this building’s setbacks. The terrace has a rubberized-floored children’s play area and garden plots, seating places, and seats. Additional 73 parking spaces, as well as ground-level retail shops, are available.
