Rosewood Master Plan

Rosewood is a major redevelopment of a BC Housing site in Richmond. The 750 plus new homes will be created to support advanced sociality and sustainability.

The preliminary vision of the redevelopment process is “to create a relationship-based community, an inclusive neighbourhood of housing and care that seamlessly integrates a variety of uses to transform lives, offering an environment for all and a hub of social activity which connects with the wider community.”

In particular, the plan aims at maximizing community resilience and joy through social connection, while also creating a strong link to the park to the west.

The selected plan to move forward to rezoning was arrived at after multiple iterations. It combines an urban block structure with a continuation to the adjacent park. Modus, PWL and Happy Cities were key collaborators.
