Woodward's 43, Mixed-use skyscraper in Downtown Eastside, Vancouver, Canada

This 122.3-meter tall structure contains 41 floors above ground and 2 underground levels, offering residential units and commercial spaces in Downtown Vancouver.

The building opened in September 2010 as part of a major redevelopment project on the site of the former Woodward's Department Store that closed in 1993.

The structure incorporates a replica of the original Woodward's 'W' neon sign, now using LED technology, maintaining a connection to the area's retail history.

The development includes 366 market housing units, along with non-market residences, civic offices, a daycare center, and facilities for Simon Fraser University.

A large glass installation by Stan Douglas depicting the 1971 Gastown Riots serves as the central focal point in the building's atrium space.
