Is that in the back lane? I mean no one will notice it

That cladding area will have a generous sidewalk setback and if I recall a lobby entrance and patio area facing Eveleigh. As well on the south side of Eveleigh there is the proposed redevelopment of 1025 Dunsmuir, which also hosts a plaza and retail at that same corner of Eveleigh and Thurlow as well as
a wide side walk on Eveleigh

But the entrance on Eveleigh for the 1025 Dunsmuir retail will be right on the corner of Thurlow while the rest of the back lane will remain loading bays.

And the central courtyard will be connected through that new Thurlow breezeway (?) which you assume will get the majority of usage.

I mean it's nicer than it was before the construction but I doubt it'll ever be active in any way.

They planted like 5-7 power poles along Thurlow for construction. Does anyone know if these will be removed once this wraps up?

But I don't think they've dug out a new underground supply line down Thurlow so you assume that they will remain in some form. There were 4 there before construction. I think some of the poles were related to Stack's power supply during construction.

Seems like they are finishing up the formwork for the roof (?)

LeftCoaster · #**509** Posted **Mar 23, 2023, 10:25 PM**

The curved roof is going on now yes, it looks a bit more interesting than expected.

Probably not. The article (from 2019) says it's 534,000 sq ft

Park Place is 596,000 sq ft, Bentall V is 583,000 sq ft (and only a very small part of that is the Cactus Club), and the North Tower of The Post is 574,000 sq ft. Bentall 4 is 581,000 sq ft.

720 Beatty will also be bigger at 600,000 sq ft. (The Stack comes in at 2,000 sq ft smaller, despite the height).

600,000 sq ft over only 17 stories too, impressive what a wide floorplate can do.

jollyburger · #**515** Posted **Mar 27, 2023, 9:15 PM**

BOMA's 2022 office market research had Bentall 4 at 531,078 sq feet. Park Place at 577,614 Bentall 5 at 577,797 (Cactus Club is 6000 from the report)

The space difference in Bentall 4 is odd. You would think the owner would know how big their building is, and it's 584,000 sq ft on Loopnet too.

Now The Post is just about complete, the north tower is definately bigger, so B6 will certainly only be fourth when it completes, and maybe fifth if Bentall 4 is bigger.

But I mean if their listed floorplates are 16,700-800 square feet on Loopnet. That would mean ~34.7-34.9 floors of the tower would be offices.

On Floor 4 (Suite 400) there's 7,245 square feet of space. But the rest of the floor is listed as a mechanical room on the north side. With that and the ground floor office space I tend to think it's a lower number.

Though they also show Suite 2300 as 17,957 sq feet (but then that's 630,000 sq feet with 35 floors). No idea what that is about.

https://www.hudsonpacificproperties....bentall-centre

Ivanhoe Cambridge called it a 548,000 sq feet building in 2015 when they recertified it for LEED.

https://www.newswire.ca/news-release...516952961.html

EDIT: Just noticed in their construction manual that Bentall doesn't use floor 13? This is from 2018 not sure if it's still the case. So Suite 3500 might be floor 34?

Construction manual also has 16,700 gross rentable area and 15,030 as the net usable space.

Probably depends on how many full floor tenants there are, which changes from time to time.

For a full floor tenant, the elevator lobby and washrooms are part of the leasable premises (and the tenant is responsible for leasehold improvements), whereas for demised floors with multiple tenants, the elevator lobby and washrooms are part of the building's common areas (and the landlord is responsible for the improvements).
Depending on how the building is tenanted, the leasable areas can change.
