The subject property is a vacant parcel located at 1012 & 1024 McGarry Terrace, within the South Nepean Town Centre and within 400 metres of two (2) rapid transit stations. The proposed development develops the lands with a dense housing form appropriate for the Town Centre in an appropriate and compatible manner. Lepine Corporation is proposing to construct an 18-storey, 62 metre residential apartment building. The proposed building would contain 228 apartment units and associated amenity areas.
The proposed development includes a five (5) storey “podium” abutting McGarry Terrace. The height of five (5) storeys relates to the planned development approved in 2014 on the lands to the immediate south, which proposed a five (5) storey facade along McGarry Terrace. The height helps frame the street while fostering a pedestrian scale. The high-rise (18 storey) building generally sits atop a one (1) storey base. The tower is located centrally on the site to provide appropriate separation to adjacent properties and the planned high-rise building to the south.
The roof of parking level P1, which extends all the way around the building has been landscaped to provide additional outdoor amenity area for the residents of the building. Ground floor units will also have private outdoor amenity area that extends into this space. A total of 120 bike parking spaces are also provided both on the ground floor and within the parking garage.
