Sovereign, Mixed-use skyscraper in Metrotown, Canada
Sovereign is a mixed-use skyscraper in Metrotown that brings together residential apartments, hotel rooms, and retail spaces. The tower stands out as a central feature of the Burnaby skyline with its distinctive proportions and urban position.
Construction began in 2011 and finished in 2014, introducing a new phase of modern urban development to Burnaby. The completed building represented growing investment in mixed-use residential and commercial projects in the region.
The building exemplifies modern architectural principles through its design by Chris Dikeakos, incorporating residential and commercial spaces within one structure.
The building sits at a central location on Kingsway at Willingdon Avenue, making it easy to spot and access. Inside, ground-level shops and dining options provide immediate attractions for passersby and visitors.
The Sovereign maintained its position as the tallest building in Burnaby until the construction of the Altus building in the Solo District.
