The three residential tower blocks proposed by Chard Developments on the site of the White Spot restaurant and Capital City Centre Hotel would contain about 450 units of housing, plus retail and office space.

Plans for three residential tower blocks — two of which would be 21 storeys — at the north end of downtown Victoria will go to public hearing this spring, along with a proposal for a 90-unit supportive-housing building in the same area.

The 90-unit supportive-housing building, put forward by B.C. Housing, would be constructed at 722 and 726 Discovery St. “It is a compromise in my view that is acceptable given all of the other benefits, so I’m quite prepared to move this forward,” she said. Chard Developments said it was unable to increase parkade setbacks and that trees bordering the project would remain within five metres of the underground parkade.
