Bentall Centre, Office complex in Downtown Vancouver, Canada
Bentall Centre is an office complex in downtown Vancouver comprising five connected towers ranging from 18 to 35 stories tall. These towers together form a major business hub in Vancouver's financial district with direct access to Burrard Station and an underground shopping mall.
Development of the complex began in 1967 with the first tower and continued through multiple construction phases until the fifth tower was completed in 2007. This extended building timeline reflects the growth of Vancouver's financial district over four decades.
The complex shows how corporate building design evolved across different decades in Canada. Each tower displays architectural styles that were popular when it was constructed.
The complex connects directly to Burrard Station, making it easy to reach by public transit. Bicycle storage and electric vehicle charging stations are available if you need them.
Four construction workers died in an accident during the building of the fourth tower in 1981, which prompted major changes to safety regulations in British Columbia. This tragedy had a lasting impact on construction practices across the province.
