Perspective
The skyscraper, which is part of the Fairmont Hotels and Resorts chain, is located at 1038 Canada Place in Downtown Vancouver in the Coal Harbour neighborhood by the Burrard Inlet waterfront. Right beside the Rogers Tower, it is also attached to the West Building of the Vancouver Convention & Exhibition Centre. In addition, it is situated near the Waterfront Station.[3] The Southern and Eastern exteriors are wrapped with an art installation of a Liam Gillick poem.[4] Fairmont Pacific Rim was developed by Westbank Corp. and the Peterson Group with architecture by James KM Cheng Architects Inc.[5]
This is the fourth Fairmont Hotel in the Vancouver Metropolitan Area. The hotel occupies the first 22 floors of the 44 storey building, with the remaining floors being condominiums.[6] There are a total of 175 residential condominium units beginning from the 23rd floor. The entrance for the residential units is located at 1011 Cordova Street W.[7]
The condominiums were pre-sold in 2007, at a price of $2,100 per square foot (equivalent to $3,000 in 2023), one of the highest in Canada at the time.[8]
Glee actor Cory Monteith was found dead in his hotel room on July 13, 2013. He was 31 years old. His cause of death was a toxic overdose of heroin and alcohol.[9]
