July 2025 – Rupert and Renfrew Station Area Plan Approved by Council

On July 8, 2025, Vancouver City Council approved the Rupert and Renfrew Station Area Plan and related Design and Development Guidelines. The plan sets a clear direction for the next 25 years of growth around the Rupert and Renfrew SkyTrain stations, supporting more housing, jobs, public spaces, and a restored Still Creek. Thank you to everyone who contributed to this milestone!

Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh Nations were involved throughout the process, while broader public feedback was gathered from 43 open houses and workshops, 72 engagement events and over 2,100 completed surveys.

WHAT’S NEXT

With City Council’s recent approval of the Rupert and Renfrew Plan, we’re beginning to receive interest from property owners and developers who want to build new housing, shops, or workspaces in the area. To take advantage of the opportunities outlined in the Plan, many sites will need to go through a process called rezoning, which changes what’s currently allowed on a property, such as the type of building, its size, or how it’s used.

To learn more about this process, you can read the City’s “How Rezoning Works” webpage.

Renfrew Ravine
We’re working on requirements that would apply to any new housing developments around Renfrew Ravine. These requirements will support the ecological health of the Ravine and improve safety.
