Floating high above Yaletown, this 18th-floor loft inside The Metropolis captures the energy, artistry, and skyline drama that define Vancouver’s most iconic neighbourhood. Behind a wall of 16’4” glass, panoramic views sweep across False Creek to the sculptural façade of The Grace—creating a sense of depth and light that feels cinematic. A $70K designer renovation transformed the space with Kentwood hardwood, quartz counters, Hans Grohe fixtures, and bespoke Arbutus millwork. The result: a home that balances warmth and precision, intimacy and scale. With its flexible den, in-suite storage, and parking, the loft adapts to every stage of life—ideal for professionals, downsizers, or design lovers seeking an elevated urban sanctuary. Steps from the Seawall, David Lam Park, and Vancouver’s best dining, this is Yaletown living at its most refined.

Design & Architecture.
The Metropolis is a study in volume and light. Inside, 16-foot ceilings rise over a double-height living space where glass, steel, and sky converge. The interplay between interior and exterior views creates a living work of architecture—dynamic by day, luminous by night. Each angle offers a reminder of Yaletown’s layered character: modern, historic, and endlessly alive.

Refined Renovation.

Completed in 2018, the renovation reimagined every surface with purpose. Kentwood engineered hardwood softens the industrial frame, while quartz and Hans Grohe fixtures bring a sculptural edge. Understated lighting enhances the loft’s gallery feel, and Arbutus-crafted storage integrates seamlessly—merging precision craftsmanship with an effortless, lived-in elegance.
