VIEW CONE #21 - COMMERCIAL DRIVE

• Located at Commercial Drive and 15th Avenue Looking Towards North Shore Mountains

• The view cone falls within the Public Plaza

VIEW CONE #27 - TROUT LAKE

• Located at the South Shore of Trout Lake Looking Towards North Shore Mountains

The view cones in proximity to this project are #21 and #27. View cone #21 affects the site minimally and has been considered in the design of the current scheme. The Grandview-Woodland Community Plan also marks out several street views to be protected in the nearby vicinity. These views are not affected by the development of the Broadway and Commercial site.

POLICY 9.7.1 The Grandview-Woodland Community Plan suggests that a project can celebrate prominent vistas and street views by:

• Supporting community art and place-making projects in locations that frame or feature public views in the neighborhood.

• Creating a more vibrant walking experience on key streets, improving places from which the
