PREFERRED SITE FOR THE SOUTH BURNABY ARENA
NN N
Southgate Community Island Neighbourhood
South Burnaby Arena
Context and Site Analysis
SITE ZONING
• Site will require rezoning from the currently zoned M1 (Manufacturing) to CD (Comprehensive Development District).
Byrne Creek Secondary School
• There is a 6m grade differential from the north to the south corners of the site that will required careful consideration to accommodate the large floorplate of the ice arenas.
• The ideal vehicular access onto the site for parking and service vehicles is opposite 11th Avenue.
• New bike lanes that link to the wider cycle network and an improved sidewalk would be provided along 18th Avenue.
• Between 134 to 186 new parking spaces would be required to accommodate a new twin pad arena.

Vision
Concept Options
Design Response
South Burnaby Arena will be a welcoming and functional facility which supports the evolving needs for community level based recreation, in a manner which elevates the experience of all users and makes a positive contribution to the surrounding neighbourhood.
A few key design strategies were used to help meet the project objectives of the facility being a good neighbour and connecting existing and emerging South Burnaby communities. One of the key design features was the creation of an articulated roof form using two diagonal roof trusses above each ice sheet.
North facing natural light is Introduced into the arena by lifting roof peaks. Natural light enhances user experience.
SIDE BY SIDE DIAGONAL
The resulting form provides an interesting visual outlook at street level and a dynamic roofscape for residents in the neighbouring future Southgate development.
END TO END
This L-shaped layout allows for the location of lobby and social spaces along 18th Street to create an active, transparent and welcoming street elevation. It allows for high visual connectivity between the arenas and support spaces for spectators and facility staff.
PROS• Compact envelope• Good functionality
CONS• Large blank elevations and massing• Inactive frontage on 18th Street• Limited visibility into arenas from lobby
PROS• Good active street frontage to 18th Street
CONS• Difficulty in achieving efficient facility operations by both staff
and users• Significant grade differential across site creates long,
large streetwall facing school• Additional cost from the need for two separate ice resurfacing
and mechanical spaces• Challenges in achieving vehicular circulation
and parking provision
PROS• Good active street frontage to 18th Street
CONS• Insufficient space for a circulation route between lobby/
front of house and change rooms/second ice sheet• Unable to achieve vehicular access and parking provision• Does not meet zoning setbacks – too close to property lines
PROS• Active elevation and presence on 18th Street• Good functionality• Strong visual connections between arenas, lobby and street
CONS• Slight increase in building envelope area
L-SHAPED
South Burnaby Arena
Good roof drainage is achieved by lowering the corners, which further reduces the building height at the edges. This is possible due to the shorter diagonal spans resulting in shallower beam depths.
PROJECT PRINCIPLE
“The South Burnaby Arena will be a good neighbour.”
HOW?
By sensitively integrating the large building volume into the site in a way which respects the Byrne Creek Secondary School and future Southgate Neighbourhood using urban design strategies.

South Burnaby Arena
The proposed concept has been developed to offer the following advantages:
Strong visual connection between the lobby social space and street that addresses the urban design objectives by providing an active animated street frontage to the surrounding neighbourhood.
Functional layout with good operational flow based on arena design best practice, for both technical operations and users, while also meeting a variety of different programming needs.
Good visual connection between arenas and lobby social space. This creates a variety of warm viewing areas for spectators and encourages participation in the sports programs.
