If this lot were rezoned
| Floor space | Homes | |
|---|---|---|
| Today's zoning (RM-4) from the city's bylaw, FAR 1.45 | 749 ft² | about 1 |
| Transit-area rezoning (Bill 47) the city must allow at least 12 storeys, FAR 4.00 | 2,067 ft² | about 2 |
Rough planning numbers: homes assume about 85% sellable floor space and 750 ft² apartments (1,100 ft² for houses and townhouses). Transit-area figures are the minimum a city must allow on a rezoning, not an approval. Confirm with the city.
