PARC Retirement Living is proposing a seniors’ independent living rental residence (with a 5% below-market affordable unit count) in an intergenerational community hub at the intersections of Fort, Quadra and Broughton streets.

The proposed hub will be comprised of three 10-storey midrises, interconnected by seven-storey bridge buildings. The ten-storey midrises will be setback from the street on a two-storey podium that continues the existing Fort Street appearance and extends onto Quadra Street.

The development site extends from the south mid-800-block of Fort Street to Quadra Street, along Quadra Street between Fort and Broughton streets, and between 846-858 Broughton Street.

The proponent has identified commercial uses that include a small grocery store, a medical walk-in clinic, child care, retail space and underground parking. Approximately 10,600 square feet of commercial space will be built along the two building's ground floors.

Revised plans were posted to DevTracker today. No changes to the exterior, but they are increasing total unit count to 280 and increasing the # of student rentals. There are 14 units set aside as affordable rentals (5% of overall total).

A letter listing all of the revisions is here: https://tender.victoria.ca/webapps/ourcity/Prospero/FileDownload.aspx?fileId=82D173DF-E416-4331-81C6-555BC2A48903&folderId=11180C170927145216076033

It's approaching 6 years since this development was first proposed and nothing has been approved.

At this rate, today's kindergarteners may not live long enough to reside here. Is there a housing "crisis" or not?

They had a bit of a rough go before the city. It could be a long while yet before something happens here.
