Woodward's Building, Mixed-use development in Downtown Eastside, Vancouver, Canada
The Woodward's Building complex spans 1,000,000 square feet across four structures, combining residential units, retail spaces, and community facilities in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside.
Originally built in 1903 as a department store, the building transformed Vancouver's retail landscape by introducing comprehensive shopping with groceries, household items, and fashion.
The development features a glass artwork by Stan Douglas depicting the 1971 Gastown Riots, located in the building's atrium as a testament to local history.
The complex includes 366 residential apartments, food stores, offices, a daycare center, and 371 parking spaces, serving both residents and visitors.
The building's restored neon 'W' sign, originally placed on a 25-meter Eiffel Tower replica in 1944, remains a recognized symbol in Vancouver's skyline.
