High-density
residential point towers (1) sit atop the podiums of commercial
uses that line Lougheed Highway (2) and the transit-focused
High Street (3). To the south, Brentwood Mall is replaced by
a variety of housing types including: medium density, ground-oriented
(4 and 5); and low-rise apartments (6). This area would be connected
to the retail and transit hub by a pedestrian bridge (7) that
crosses Lougheed Highway, which is aligned with the pedestrian-focused
green street. Entry into the town centre is announced at either
end by large blocks of deciduous forest (8), which assist in
ecologically linking the upper portions of the site with Still
Creek to the south. The middle of the site is dominated by medium-density
residential neighbourhoods that feature four-storey courtyard
buildings (9) stepping down the slope. The restored Still Creek
corridor (10) has a tighter meandering stream course and an
extensive forested edge (11) that provide both wildlife habitat
and opportunities for linking up with the existing urban trail
system (12). Beecher Creek (13), and historic Brentwood Creek
have been daylighted and drain into Still Creek on either end
of the site.
