1335 Howe St | 115m | 40Fl | Completed
The City of Vancouver has received an application to rezone 1335 Howe Street from DD (Downtown) District to CD-1 (Comprehensive Development) District. The proposal is for a 40-storey residential building and includes:
a building height of 115.2 m (378 ft.) a floor space ratio (FSR) of 12.12, 264 market residential units, and 109 secured market rental units * This building slipped thru and never had a thread created for it and has had it's updates dumped into the generic downtown Vancouver thread until now, but we had a request to create it's own thread and here we are. |
40 story Downtown - should be a visible building.
|
Well if it's getting it's own thread, it should have a picture. Here's one. [source]

How horrifying. The UDP will have lost its last shred of credibility if this abomination slips through.

Yep. Its a building.
Would be great if a simple tower like this was at least "affordable." But knowing Vancouver this will got for $1600 a foot anyway. |
Photos today showing progress. The last two photos are from inside the parking garage at Maddox. The excavation retaining rebar pierced the membrane/concrete on one of the parking levels in Maddox. For obvious reasons there was a scurry of building engineers shortly thereafter to assess things.

This is looking in from the alley. So, it looks like the crane is going to be right up front and centre on Howe Street.

Saw it this morning on my way into work. Big red luffing crane. The location is much more visible when crossing the Burrard Bridge than I thought it would be.
|
And the crane has multicoloured flashing Xmas lights.
|
Saw it yesterday evening while attending the 601 Beach open house. Looks like the colours are red and blue up close so it may not be seasonal.

One more, from Howe And Pacific.

With the number of projects being built currently in tight locations I think this cycle of projects being built has the highest concentration of Tower cranes with "luffing" jib that the city has seen in my memory unless we have had other building cycles with a larger concentration of tower cranes with jibs. I know this cycle doesn't have a ton of tower cranes say for example the build out of Olympic Village pre Olympics. Thoughts anyone? :)

As seen from the east sidewalk on the bridge. In the second pic the crane on the left is Grosvenor Pacific.

Wow, from exactly the same spot!
Nice |

Starting a new project next month
Was informed today by one of my clients (Active Fire and safety) that my services (coring) will be needed here beginning next month. He mentioned it was a 44 floor project. Looking forward to the views :skyhighmind:

I worked on The Mark, Maddox and The Salt. The Mordern by Amacon was also under construction. This was the start of the post Olympic building frenzy. |

:tup: Sounds great. Might be some great views next summer. Maybe Vancouver House will be done by then. :rolleyes: |
I like those up close and personnel action shots.
|
Wow thats a first I have ever seen a structural wall placed via shotcrete and not cast in place with conventional concrete pour
|
I think it's always done that way for perimeter underground levels

Low velocity spayed concrete walls was also utilized at Burrard Place Office Tower.
