Vancouver Downtown Aug 30 2012 06a Hornby and Helmcken

At the southeast corner of Helmcken and Hornby, in the heart of downtown Vancouver a signature building, the Artemisia, begins construction. This will prove to be a stunning building from developer James Schouw who also crafted one of my favorite Yaletown towers - Grace. The Artemisia, named after the Italian Baroque painter Artemisia Gentileschi, will be a much smaller collection of residences that, based on the artists drawing will quickly become an oft photographed corner of Vancouver. Prices for one of the 21 residences in the 6 storey building start at $935K and go to a line-of-credit-nuking $3.65 million.

For more info check out Les Twarog and Sonja Pedersen's excellent blog posting about the building.
