3396 MARINE DRIVE - THE BLACK CAT ' A RARE PIECE OF WEST BAY HISTORY Since 1922, this landmark building has anchored the West Bay community. Today it stands as one of just two C1-zoned commercial properties along the Marine Drive corridor between Dundarave and Horseshoe Bay. The five-storey building has never received formal heritage designation, but its history runs deep. It comprises six units ' including one residential home ' six bathrooms, several private decks, and sweeping ocean views stretching across Radcliffe Avenue to English Bay. What sets this property apart is its flexibility: commercial use, subdivision, and residential redevelopment are all viable paths forward, and the District has signaled rare openness to a Heritage Revitalization Agreement. Few properties on the North Shore offer this combination of history, location, and optionality. (id:27476)
