Fairmont Pacific Rim, Postmodern skyscraper in Downtown Vancouver, Canada

The Fairmont Pacific Rim rises 140 meters with 44 floors, featuring glass walls reflecting the surrounding harbor and mountain scenery of British Columbia.

The structure opened on February 4, 2010, just before the Winter Olympics, becoming the fourth Fairmont property in the Vancouver Metropolitan Area.

The exterior walls display art installations with text by Liam Gillick, creating a connection between architecture and contemporary literary expression.

The first 22 floors contain 377 hotel rooms, while the upper levels house 175 residential condominiums with a separate entrance at 1011 Cordova Street.

The building achieved record-setting condominium prices during its 2007 pre-sale, reaching approximately 2,100 dollars per square foot.
