Published 11:30 pm Monday, March 9, 2026
Surrey council granted third-reading approval to a density bylaw amendment to allow a massive residential development application to build seven high-rises and five mid-rise towers downtown that will contain 2,705 dwellings – among them 321 for rent – as well as 2,227 square metres of commercial space.
The vote was taken following a public hearing Monday night.
The project is for 13270 and 13352 – 105A Avenue and 13325 and 13327 – 105 Avenue, and 10520 – 132 Street, on land owned by Onni Regency Holdings Corp. The site is located east of 132 Street between 105A Avenue to the north and 105 Avenue to the south and is currently occupied by four three-storey apartment buildings containing 321 rental units.
Upon final approval the proposed development is expected to be built in eight phases over 30 t0 35 years with the first two phases to be ready for occupancy in five to 10 years.
The “principal” buildings included in the project are a 48 storey tower, a 43 storey tower, a 33 storey tower, a 26 storey tower, a 24 storey tower, a 20-storey tower, a 16 storey tower and a six storey tower on 3.7 hectares.
According to a city planning document, the Surrey School District expects the development will house 259 school-aged children.
Meantime, council also approved at third reading an application from T.J.P. 11091960 Holdings Ltd. to amend a downtown densities bylaw to permit a 34-storey mixed-use tower, with ground floor commercial units and 312 market rental dwelling units over underground parking at 13668 and 13672 Whalley Boulevard; and 13639, 13649, 13655 and 13673 108 Avenue.
Nobody spoke to either project during the public hearings.
