Doing a bike parkade vs car parkade allows for the retention of permeable area such that the green space and storm water discharge is not that different from a house + garage.

Continuing to see how single-stair housing types might start to land in different Vancouver zones. In R3, a 66x100 lot allows 2.2 FSR.
We could a floor plate that allows a range of units size from micro studios to family size 3br.
A bike parkade with dedicated bike/storage spaces.

Where possible we like to use the round downspouts (with standoffs vs straps) and half-round gutters.
They cost a bit more than the ‘home depot’ corbeled/rectangular gutter and downspout, but usually feel worth it to finish up the home.

Went to tonight’s book launch for “Life after cars” by the nyc podcasters behind @waroncars.bsky.social - great to see @lucymaloney.bsky.social @tomflood.bsky.social and an intro by @uytaelee.bsky.social - combining humour, insight and a bit of fire

The goal was to have the rainway run from Kingsway through to a constructed wetland on the great northern way campus (but unfortunately the campus opted for a symbolic pattern on the pavers and a couple rain gardens instead).
Hopefully we can see phase 2 built up to Kingsway.
