Vancouver’s city council has approved a high-density development concept for a 36-hectare site on the city’s west side, involving 13,000 new homes.
The Council says the Jericho Lands Policy Statement sets the direction for development of the land owned by a joint venture that includes three First Nations.
It says the project unfolding over 25 to 30 years will potentially house 24,000 residents and include 8 hectares of parks and 4 hectares of public space.
