A new hotel and multi-residential mixed-use development is being proposed for Vancouver’s Oakridge area on the city’s west side.

GBL Architects has filed a development application with the city. The application, now going through a public question-and-answer period, does not provide details on any developers associated with the proposed project.

If all goes according to plan, the proposed redevelopment of four single-family home sites at 6012–6088 Cambie Street near West 45th Avenue will also include retail and office spaces. The site is situated across Cambie Street from Oakridge Park, the large-scale redevelopment of Oakridge mall slated to open this year.

Plans call for the mixed-use project to feature a 15-storey hotel tower on the south side and a 25-storey residential tower on the south side, with both situated above a shared three-storey podium, according to the development application.

The multi-residential component is slated to include 126 strata condominium homes—12 studios, 34 one-bedroom units, 70 two-bedroom units, and 10 three-bedroom units.

The hotel is slated to provide 94 guest suites—48 studios and 46 two-bedroom units—designed to accommodate both short- and long-term stays, with in-suite kitchens and larger layouts.

The podium will offer approximately 10,600 square feet sf of ground-level retail space and 38,556 sf of office space. Residents and hotel guests alike will have access to dedicated amenity spaces, including rooftop terraces and a fitness centre.

The proposal marks the second hotel and multi-residential project planned for the Oakridge area. A separate development at 488 West 43rd Avenue, just north of the latest proposed site, is expected to include a 29-storey condo tower and a 15-storey hotel with 176 condo units and 233 hotel rooms. That project—being advanced by Peterson Group—secured its development permit in 2024.

The immediate area along Cambie currently lacks existing hotels and tourist attractions beyond the forthcoming Oakridge Park, which is being developed by QuadReal and Wesbank.

However, both projects are located between two Canada Line SkyTrain stations—Oakridge–41st Avenue and Langara–49th Avenue—providing direct access to downtown Vancouver and suburban Richmond, B.C., including Vancouver International Airport. The developments also sit near Vancouver Community College’s Langara campus, which may help generate demand from visiting educators, students, or conference attendees.

The intended hotel spaces are part of an effort to offset a major shortage of Vancouver-area hotel rooms.
