Hotel Europe, Heritage hotel in Gastown, Vancouver, Canada
Located at 43 Powell Street, Hotel Europe stands on a triangular block with a six-story brick facade and granite columns at its entrance point.
The 1909 construction by Parr and Fee Architects introduced the first reinforced concrete structure in Canada, requiring specialized contractors from Cincinnati for implementation.
The building incorporates design elements from New York's Flatiron Building, including faience tiles, brass features, and a prominent sheet-metal cornice along its exterior.
The structure contains 84 residential units managed by the Affordable Housing Society following its 1983 renovation funded by Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation.
Multiple films and shows selected Hotel Europe as a filming location, including The Changeling where it represented the Seattle Historical Society.
