Redevelopment of the Metro Vancouver Housing Corporation's Heather Place complex at 733 W 14th Ave.

The current 86 townhouses will be replaced with 230 rental units across a set of 5, 7, and 10 storey buildings (17.9, 23.7, and 32.2 metres tall, respectively). 26 of the current units are RGI, and they will be replaced, though the remainder will be market rate.

Is it grass on the roof?

It is! Building A and C will have standard green roofs, Building B will have residential amenities.

Building A is completed, but it doesn't look like any work on Buildings B or C has started.

The curve entrance is nice
