Sylvia Tower at 1861 Beach Avenue Vancouver BC V6G 1Z1 strata plan No. VAS1625, 17 suites, 17 levels, built 1986, crossing roads: Beach Avenue and Gilford Street.
Situated in Vancouver's most sought-after location, Engish Bay waterfront, next to Stanley Park, with unobstructed views the ocean & picturesque evening sunsets, 'Sylvia Tower' has a very prestigious address as part of the Historic Sylvia Hotel on Beach Avenue. This seventeen-storey building contains thirteen apartments, one per floor. It is capped by a two storey penthouse, featuring a prismatic glass turret that screens views of the mechanical and elevator hoists.
The Sylvia Tower paved the way for a revival of the "small plate" high rise in the West End of Vancouver. This tall, thin tower introduced the concept of numeric-view analysis as a means of reconciling view and light for neighbours. In the twenty years since its completion, the small-plate high-rise has become one of the defining characteristics of housing on the Downtown Vancouver peninsula.
