Innovation in architecture

"Vancouver city council has referred to public hearing a proposed condo tower that will redefine the downtown skyline."


"With its distinctive curved silhouette, the 43-storey building will be a development by Westbank Projects Corp. The high-rise, planned for the southeast corner of Alberni and Cardero streets, has been designed by Kengo Kuma, a Japanese architect who will be creating a new stadium in Tokyo for the 2020 Olympics. An urban-design analysis by city staff notes that the building form constitutes a “recognizable new benchmark for architectural creativity”.
