This is progressing although I don't know if it will start before Chard's other project on Broughton.
This is a long way off. Broughton won`t start until late Spring 2011 at the earliest. This won`t start until Broughton is finished

Previously the problem (to the neighbours) was the impact on the townhouses to the north - they face to the south and would have had all sun blocked off by the building wall across the fence.

I am very pleased that this will go through.
Now if we could just do something about those government barracks and empty lots nearby.

Now don't go assuming that this is going to go through, just because the neighbourhood association seemed to like it. I've seen more than one example of projects that were OK with the neighbourhood but turned down by Council.

David Chard’s 640 Michigan Street condo proposal had a successful date at City Hall yesterday when the Planning and Land Use Standing Committee voted in favour of having the property rezoned.
This is the latest milestone in a rezoning process that goes back five years when Chard’s development company first proposed a 67-unit condo building on a James Bay street across from Orchard House, Victoria’s tallest highrise.

So only the edges of the buildings face the sidewalk?
?
Yes. I saw the model at CHall last night. How you like that shadow?

I don't have a current unit count on this version--the 67 unit was the first iteration.
In 2006, Councillor Helen Hughes said this proposal had been back and forth so many times it looked like a tennis game. That was four years ago!

One thing I notice though with a lot of these bland designs is that they are not from local architects. I get a feeling some of these projects are just "phoned in" from vancouver. So much of langford is utterly phoned in from alberta and it shows.
