Located in the heart of the Cedar Cottage neighbourhood in east Vancouver, this Craftsman Character retention development includes the adaptive reuse of the single family house with a conversion into 4 dwelling units and a new single family infill house in the rear of the property. A rear addition to the existing house facilitated ample space to reprogram the single family residence into 4 units over four storeys of living space. The new infill building is a contemporary design that provides a clear contrast to the Craftsman Character retention building and further showcases the built history of the Cedar Cottage community.
