Vintop Development Corp. (Vintop) has submitted a rezoning application to the City of New Westminster to redevelop 140 Sixth Street (Royal Towers) with a mixed-use project consisting of a mix of residential tenures including approx. 126 below-market rentals, 109 market rentals, and 800 strata homes. The proposal also includes new commercial spaces to help activate and animate the block, and a public plaza.


The rezoning will determine specific parameters including uses, density, building heights and setbacks, as well as any required legal agreements. A Master Plan process will follow the rezoning and additional public consultation will be conducted as part of that process. The Master Plan will further define the vision and objectives for the project, and establish building placement, circulation and access, landscaping and public realm design, and supporting infrastructure.

Your feedback will be used to shape the development as it moves through the Rezoning and Master Plan processes.

  1. A Tenant Assistance Plan (TAP) has been prepared to support existing tenants at Royal Towers. The key components of the TAP are: right-of-first-refusal to a rental replacement unit and moving allowances for all eligible tenants. If you are an existing tenant please share any ideas you may have about the redevelopment of the site or the components of the TAP.

  1. The project includes two taller residential buildings above a commercial podium along Royal Avenue, and two six-storey buildings to the north. The conceptual site plan proposes to have pedestrian connections, public open space lined with retail uses, and underground parking. The design of buildings and how they are sited will be refined through the Master Plan process. Do you think buildings are appropriately located on the site?
