• 70 one-bedrooms, 43 two-bedrooms & 18 three-bedrooms;
• 6,200 SF of retail space on the ground floor;
• A total density of 7.14 FSR;
• A building height of 194 ft.with additional height for a rooftop amenity space
• 85 vehicle parking spaces and 254 bicycle parking spaces.

The application is being considered under the Cambie Corridor Plan.

The architect for the project is Arno Matis Architecture.

The site was sold in 2017 for $30,750,000, or $256 per buildable SF.
