Description: The Butterfly In Downtown Vancouver - Meet The Canadian Condo Skyscaper Inspired By A Butterfly Construction on The Butterfly, the 331-unit luxury condo tower developed by Westbank, started in December 2018 with an anticipated completion date of the summer of 2022. Units started at $990,000 and they are almost sold out. This proposed new development in the heart of downtown Vancouver involves the heritage restoration and expansion of one of the City’s most historic churches, together with the integration of a 556′ luxury residential tower. The podium levels and galleria are closely integrated with the heritage church, providing expanded community program spaces, daycare, offices and affordable rental housing. The entire complex is envisioned to extend and integrate into the rich landscape of Vancouver’s vibrant West End neighborhood. The market tower reconsiders the high-rise typology by introducing shared outdoor garden spaces on each level that allow social spaces for neighborly interaction and intimate groupings of residents. These outdoor breezeways also contribute to significant energy reductions by encouraging natural ventilation and reducing the tower’s reliance on conditioned circulation spaces and artificial lighting. The unique form of the tower will provide Vancouver with an bold new iconic landmark that highlights the highpoint of the downtown peninsula and the historic gateway into the West End.
