VANCOUVER Vancouver ’ s architectural future

Then came a project like no other that has been turning heads since it began to rise from its foundation .
This , of course , is the memorizing and at times starling Vancouver House — a tower that seems to be defying the laws of gravity .
Currently under construction with a final height of 151.5 metres , this eye catching project interacts with the Granville Street Bridge by appearing to loom above the southbound onramp , creating a unique urban space in Vancouver .
Designed by Bjarke Ingels Group Architects , this tower will act as a gateway into the downtown core and is sure to become an icon of the city .
