The Canaccord signage facing north looks like it's been removed.

CF is calling it MNP Tower instead of 609 Granville

Why are they doing that? The MNP Tower - everybody knows - is that sleekly curving neighbour to the Marine Building. /// So why call the old Canaccord building the MNP Tower?

MNP has moved out of the now formerly named MNP Tower at 1021 W Hastings.

I'll update that thread title when I am on something other than my phone.

Who is they??

Buildings are named after their lead tenants.

MNP no longer takes space at 1021 W Hastings so they have lost naming rights.

They moved all of their office space to 609 Granville, which will now be known as MNP Tower.

Canaccord sign was removed a couple years ago when they moved to The Stack.

my error

Please excuse my lack of knowledge about MNP moving to the former Canaccord Building. I've been away so long, and dissociated from current events.

KingSett Capital Buys Pender Place Office Towers In Vancouver From CF & IMCO

Toronto-based private equity real estate firm KingSett Capital has acquired the twin office towers in downtown Vancouver known as Pender Place, after the high-profile complex was put on the market earlier this year.

Pender Place is located at 700 W Pender Street and 750 W Pender Street in the heart of downtown Vancouver, which are together a single 0.716-acre legal parcel with an address of 700 W Pender Street.

Cadillac Fairview (CF) — the wholly-owned real estate subsidiary of the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan — jointly owned 700 W Pender Street alongside the Investment Management Corporation of Ontario (IMCO) and the property was held under PCL Pender Place Inc. Perhaps better known for its shopping centres, Cadillac Fairview is one of the largest owners of office space in downtown Vancouver, and remains so after this sale.

Not sure what it means for the demising of the store but they aren't tied to the existing escalator openings on the upper levels.

In their defense, they are demolishing part of a building while other nearby parts are still occupied.

The asbestos is all gone, that was the first ~2 years of the work. Capitol is correct, this is going slowly since it is being demolished above a fully functioning mall. Very careful work.
