The middle lot is 6,002 sq ft (558 m²); the smallest the city records is 842 sq ft (78 m²) and the largest 93,475 sq ft (8,684 m²). Each lot's page shows its own size.

How much of North Vancouver (City) is Low Rise Neighbourhood 2?

650 lots, 10% of the 6,781 lots the City of North Vancouver records across the whole city. Every one of those lots has its own page with its own zone, size and unit count.

Can I build a laneway home or coach house on a lot in Low Rise Neighbourhood 2?

It depends on the lot's zone. In the Ground Oriented (GO) zone: Yes. A separate unit at the back of the lot is one of the units this zone already allows, so it counts towards the lot's number of units rather than being an extra. In the Two-Unit Residential (RT-1) zone: Yes, with a single house: one coach house at the back. With a duplex, the extra units are suites inside the building instead. In the Ground-Oriented Residential 2 (RG-2) zone: Yes, with a single house: one coach house at the back of the lot. Look up your own address to see which zone your lot is in.

Where do these figures come from?

Lot counts come from the City of North Vancouver's public map, downloaded on September 19, 2026. Confirm the rules for your lot with the city before you pay for a design.

Does this mean the city will approve my project?

This page shows what the zoning bylaw allows on paper. A real project also needs a building permit, the city reviews each design against more rules than the ones shown here, and your lot may carry limits the city's map does not show. Confirm the rules with the city's planning staff before you pay for a design.
