215 W2nd Avenue
Another Southeast False Creek condo project? No – another of the City of Vancouver provided sites for BC Housing. DYS designed this 147 unit 11 storey project that started construction in July 2011 and as we expected, it fits in just fine … Continue reading

508 Helmcken Street
We only featured this tower (or rather, an earlier version) three weeks ago, and commented that it would change as the Urban Design Panel found the earlier design somewhat overbearing for its context right next to the Emery Barnes Park. So here … Continue reading
Rogers Arena towers
We first saw this project in an earlier design in mid 2012, and again at the start of the year. Here’s what we believe is the final version, with approved development permits for all three towers. Aquilini Developments are developing the towers to wrap … Continue reading

1365 Burnaby Street
The West End has seen relatively little change in the rental area (which is most of the West End) as generally developers have to replace the existing number of units if they redevelop. Here’s an exception; a building designed by a Vancouver … Continue reading
Beach Towers
Council have approved a rezoning to add 133 more rental units to the 1960′s CBK Van Norman designed Beach Towers complex. Altogether there are currently four towers on two sites on either side of Harwood Street. The additional units will come … Continue reading

1400 Howe Street
We first saw 1400 Howe back in February when we suggested it might raise a few eyebrows for its design. Westbank propose a 51 storey tower and two other buildings around and under one of the loops at the south end … Continue reading
1396 Richards Street
We’ve seen a tower proposed for 1300 Richards a few months ago. Now there’s another 42 storey tower rezoning proposed to bookend the block. Like 1300 Richards it’s designed by DIALOG, although this time for Onni, the company who are currently developing another … Continue reading
