City seeks public input on City Hall Campus, public space improvements and Plan updates

June 13 2024 –

The Broadway Plan was set in motion almost two years ago, and work is underway to add housing, job space and amenities that integrate with the Broadway Subway and meet our city’s needs.

As part of the ongoing work, the City will be sharing updates and gathering public feedback on: 

City Hall Campus: creating a long-term plan for Civic District, the City-owned lands around Vancouver City Hall, to help this area evolve into a more welcoming, inclusive, service-oriented environment with improved community amenities. 

Broadway Public Realm and Streetscape Plan: focuses on improvements to the streets and public spaces in the area over the next 30 years. 

Broadway Plan Review: focuses on proposed adjustments to the Broadway Plan to help achieve its objectives and reflect new provincially-legislated requirements for developments near transit.

Background

Approved by Council in June 2022, the Broadway Plan provides a 30-year framework to integrate new housing, job space and amenities with the Broadway Subway.

The Plan will guide growth and change in the area that is generally located east to west between Clark Drive and Vine Street, and north to south between 1st and 16th Avenues.

The Broadway Plan was developed in coordination with the Vancouver Plan , the overarching, strategic land use plan that will guide growth and change for the entire city to 2050. Along with other City initiatives and priorities, the Broadway Plan is an important building block within the Vancouver Plan.
