Cadillac Fairview has submitted an enquiry to the Gastown Historic Area Planning Committee as a precursor to what may be a formal application to develop a mixed-use office tower on a vacant parking lot adjacent to their existing Station building; adjacent The Landing building at 375 Water St. The preliminary proposal calls for a 24-storey office tower, 417 ft tall, with 440,000 SF of gross building space.
The subject site is at the edge of the Downtown and Gastown districts and in between two
designated heritage buildings, the CPR Station and The Landing. It is one of the sites
referenced by the Central Waterfront Hub Framework which was adopted by City Council on June 11, 2009. While this proposal follows a number of other office projects planned or under construction downtown, it is unique in terms of location and potential views. Stay tuned for more on this project…
