Rising majestically in a vibrant area of Vancouver’s city centre called Downtown South, the 40-storey condominium tower is destined to be a much-admired landmark and sought-after place of residence. Tate on Howe gives a grand sense of arrival, breathtaking panoramic views, finishes of the highest quality where every detail is sculpted to perfection.

Award-winning Merrick Architecture has gone above and beyond customary high-rise design, setting a new precedent with a unique curvilinear glass and steel form. Expansive windows infuse interiors with natural light, and the tower is purposely designed to optimize views and privacy. Built to LEED Gold standard, energy and water efficiencies enhance livability for residents and promote a greener, cleaner urban environment.

Tate will be located at the corner of Howe and Drake, an area of downtown that has seen a lot of redevelopment in recent years, this 27,000 sqft site is being developed into a 40 story residential hi-rise building with ground floor artist studio and retail space. With unique architecture features including grand lobby, expansive porte cochere and elevated gardens designed by renowned architectural firm Merrick Architecture.

This 342 suite development, includes a 10,000 sq ft of artists studios – the design includes – no residential element to them, just artists work space for up to 20 artists. Three commercial retail units in the podium. The artist studios will be located along the Howe Street side of the development. The 4,224 square feet of retail space in the podium will run along Drake Street, from the corner of Howe and Drake to the western laneway. There will be underground parking, accessible from the laneway, which will provide 316 residential parking spaces, 444 bicycle spaces and three commercial parking spaces, with some spots reserved for the tenants in the artist studios. Presumably the design requirements to make the tower more slender, and floorplates slightly smaller, is represented in the tower redesign.
