Onni Group's Lot P project in False Creek Flats will feature four towers and a covered public atrium, according to architectural details reported by RENX on October 29.

The development at 375 East 1st Ave. will span 1.2 million square feet, according to Onni's rezoning application. BOP Architects designed the project, which groups three 35-storey buildings and one 40-storey building on a shared six-storey podium. The City of Vancouver approved the rezoning in July.

The Lot P application describes 485 rental homes, 639 condos and 32 social housing units, along with 225 hotel rooms, office space, retail and an auditorium. The site sits next to the planned Great Northern Way-Emily Carr SkyTrain station on the Broadway Subway line.

## A covered atrium in a rainy city

At the centre of the development is a large, daylit covered atrium connecting the towers at ground level. Retail, hotel and residential entrances will open onto the space, and offices will overlook it.

BOP Principal Alan Boniface told RENX that covered public spaces of this kind are rare in Vancouver. He said the design aims to make visitors feel as if they are looking up through water and into trees above.

"It's unusual in Vancouver to see a massive tower design incorporate a covered space to bring people outside, but protected from the weather," Boniface said.

## Development permit still to come

Onni chief of staff Duncan Wlodarczak told RENX the project team is working to earn its development permit. He said that process could take about a year given the size of the development.

Wlodarczak said market conditions are also a factor. He pointed to lower immigration levels, tax policies affecting developers and economic worry as things that have reduced buyers' interest in for-sale condos. He said there are better opportunities right now in rental homes, commercial space and hotel rooms, and that Onni has long-term confidence in Vancouver.

The project also includes cultural elements tied to the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh Nations, including art installations and design themes.
