Overview
Renfrew-Collingwood is the City of Vancouver's name for a local area of about 805 hectares on the East Side. Five SkyTrain stations sit inside it: Nanaimo, 29th Avenue and Joyce-Collingwood on the Expo Line, and Renfrew and Rupert on the Millennium Line. About 60% of the land is R1-1, the City's zone for house lots, and about 6% is RT-11. Multi-family RM-7 and R3-1 are about 4% each, industrial I-2 about 4% and commercial C-2A about 2%.
Schools split four ways at secondary level. Windermere Secondary (3155 East 27th Avenue) covers about 56% of the area, Vancouver Technical Secondary (2600 East Broadway) about 24%, Gladstone Secondary about 16% and Killarney Secondary about 4%. Eleven elementary catchments reach the area; the largest are Renfrew (about 19%), Norquay (15%), Nootka (13%), Grenfell (11%) and Bruce (10%). The Vancouver School Board's school locator settles any one address.
On the weekday midday timetable the Expo Line reaches Waterfront Station from Joyce-Collingwood in about 15 minutes, from 29th Avenue in about 13 and from Nanaimo in about 11 or 12. The Millennium Line reaches Commercial-Broadway Station from Renfrew in about 3 minutes and from Rupert in about 4 or 5. BC's Bill 44 requires municipalities to allow 3 or 4 homes on most lots once limited to single-family use, so check a lot's zone and size before pricing in a multiplex.
