The Building:

This landmark tower at the entry to downtown on Seymour and Drake offers a unique addition to the Vancouver skyline while maintaining its ground level heritage roots. Refreshing, bold and distinctive.

The sharp modern exterior architecture has been designed to maximize the ocean and southern views from almost every suite. This stunning contemporary design makes Élan Vancouver standout from other Yaletown towers.

A modern contemporary entrance and lobby give the Elan fresh looks that treat residents and visitors with a taste of luxury and class while be completely functional.

The finish of Elan suites can be compared to other-high end downtown condominiums found in Coal Harbour or in waterfront locations.

Spectacular views at Elan Vancouver are a true feature of this building. The building was designed with a focus on having as many suites facing stretches of Vancouver’s waterfront as possible. Maximum window space and balconies make suites bright and inviting.

Building amenities include recreation center, cardio room, yoga studio, sauna and steam room, 3 elevators, visitor parking, games and meeting room.

This modern designed tower is located in the heart of Vancouver’s downtown and part of the Yaletown district known for up-scale living spaces, great restaurants, and trendy shops.

The Neighborhood:

Yaletown is Vancouver’s trendy and upscale renovated warehouse district. This fresh urban neighbourhood is just an easy walk from the centre of downtown Vancouver or a quick ferry ride from Granville Island.

Yaletown’s converted heritage buildings are home to some of city’s top fashion and design shops, as well as cutting edge restaurants and bars. Old loading docks act as giant sidewalks and create a unique setting for wandering, shopping, or lounging at one of the many outdoor patios.

The Yaletown population has grown considerably in the last decade, and consists primarily of young professionals in their late 20s to late 30s. Although there are significantly fewer children in Yaletown than Metro Vancouver as a whole, many young families choose to stay in the area until the time comes to purchase a larger home.

Artists and sales and service people also populate the neighbourhood.

While Yaletown became renowned for multimedia offices during the dot com boom, it now houses a broader array of businesses and its population reflects this.

Mainland, Hamilton and Homer Streets are replete with hair and nail salons, boutique clothing and gift stores, lifestyle and home furnishing stores, restaurants, and lounges.

Check out Blo Blow Dry Bar or Bombay Brows for some pampering, Bobo's Philosophy Hair salon for cool haircuts and styles or Atomic Model for a selection of original clothing.

Fine Finds also features clothing and accessories by local and international designers, and a selection of gifts that rivals that of Beauty Mark down the street.

For vintage finds, stop by Retro Rock Vintage Clothing on Davie and Seymour, arguably one of the best vintage stores within the downtown area.

Urban Fare, Choices Market and Nester’s Market serve the community with a large variety of grocery options, from gourmet to organic to locally grown products.
