I doubt most Westernized Vancouverites would go for it right now... but seeing as the dead are starting to have better accommodations than the living, that might change.

I think what you are describing is a mausoleum. Ocean view in Burnaby has several mausoleum buildings that have been created over the years. They accept caskets but also have smaller compartments where cremated remains can be stored if that is how the family decided to handle things. Some of these are on the outside walls of the buildings and "open air". This is a very European concept and well accepted by many cultures.
The newest is probably a 4-5 level building with the bottom floor being the basement.
