Two-Family Dwelling District (Strathcona/Kiwassa)
The intent is to encourage the retention of neighbourhood and streetscape
character, particularly through the retention, renovation and restoration of
existing character buildings. Redevelopment is encouraged on sites with existing
buildings of style and form which are inconsistent with the area’s pre-1920
architecture. Emphasis is placed on the external design of additions to existing
buildings and new buildings to encourage the preservation of the historic
architectural character of the area. Floor area incentives are included to
achieve the creation of affordable housing and the rehabilitation of original
buildings which are important to the neighbourhood’s character.
