A context-sensitive mixed-use development designed to strengthen the Village core.
The proposed development at 7261 Lantzville Road introduces a modest, mixed-use project that combines ground-floor retail with multi-unit townhouses. This carefully planned rezoning directly aligns with the Official Community Plan’s Village West Special Planning Area, concentrating new housing and commercial opportunities within the community’s designated growth area.
By integrating retail at street level with diverse housing options above and behind, the project aims to activate the village centre, encourage walkability, and provide attainable housing choices. Designed in accordance with DPA Village Form and Character guidelines, the architecture promotes a pedestrian-friendly environment that fits seamlessly with the surrounding neighbourhood.
In addition to its thoughtful urban design, the project includes a significant Community Contribution, reinforcing its role as both a neighbourhood asset and a catalyst for sustainable growth in Lantzville.
The 7261 Lantzville Road project demonstrates how strategic urban planning and design can enrich the character of a small community while responding to long-term growth needs. By combining housing diversity with street-level retail, the project helps shape a walkable, connected village centre that balances modern living with small-town charm.
Through its commitment to fit, form, and contribution, this mixed-use development aspires to become an anchor project for the Village core, enhancing both quality of life and economic vitality in Lantzville.
