FRIENDS and ASSOCIATES: CALL TO ACTION

Hi Friends,

There is a monster two highrise development proposed for our area at Boundary and Hastings, which exceeds height and density mandates by triple.
This Hastings corridor by the Cassiar Connector CANNOT withstand the extra traffic and street parking stress and is not supported with enough public transit. This density has only been allowed for intersections near SkyTrain stations in the past. We need your help!
 
The developer PCI will receive rents in perpetuity but are only willing to offer 94parking stalls on 200+ units. The Hastings corridor has been limited to 5 storeys for 50 years, and provides an unobstructed view-cone down Hastings to the elegant Vancouver skyline.

Few if any amenities are offered by the developer PCI, who seems to ram through every development with City Hall, who has never rejected any of their proposals. City Hall has been tallying ALL comments, and the developer's insiders have orchestrated a campaign to deluge City Hall with Comments of Support, so can you please take a minute right away to make a (hopefully) OPPOSED comment which will help not only us but all residents of Hastings-Sunrise.

Of course, we all want more rental housing, but the impact on this (our) neighbourhood will be extreme and untenable.

PLEASE HELP WITH THIS CAUSE, there is a time limit.

You do not have to be a resident of Hastings-Sunrise to help this cause, so jump in!
PLEASE HELP US AND OUR NEIGHBOURS BY COMMENTING ONLINE AT:



 Thanks in advance!

Gabriel and Band at Frankie’s Jazz Club this Saturday!

Gabriel: Video from Algarve Smooth Jazz Festival

 I had the honor and pleasure to be invited by Europe's best-known jazz impresario Christian Bössner, to perform in Portugal at the 4th Annual Algarve Smooth Jazz Festival in October 2019.

It was a fantastic 5 days with other well-known performers, such as Jeff Kashiwa, Brian Simpson, Blake Aaron, Kim Waters, Bobby Lyle, Paul Brown, Adam Hawley, Elan Trotman, Rick Braun, Gerald Veasley, Javier Colon, and Kayla Waters. His crew and production team made everything flow smoothly and included the lovely Jazz Hostess Sandra and her crew, as well as Rajko & Claudi Lienert, and Jorge Fonseca.    

My performance spot was excellent, placed perfectly on the final day, on the warm and sunny seaside Main Stage. My band knocked it out of the park, so high marks to Orefo Orakwue (bass), Andrew Small (drums), Dave Ital (guitar), Steve Turner (keys), and Nelson Nunes (audio). My whole show is captured below, so sit back and dig into the solid and punchy vibes, all originals from many of my albums, including the latest MidCentury Modern Vol. 2, MidCentury Modern Vol. 1, Cool Down, Kissed By the Sun, Told Ya So, and more. All are available from Apple, Amazon, Spotify, with physical discs also from CD Baby, and WindtunnelRecords.
