1157 Burrard Street Condos

Features and Amenities

1157 Burrard Street Condos is 43-storey development that will house 271 residential suites. The suites will be a mix of studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom units.

The development will be a mixed-use one, with commercial and retail spaces planned for the lower floors. There will be a total of more than 11,000 square feet allotted for commercial space, of which, 8,600 square feet will be allocated for the retail elements on the ground floor.

The developers aim for a LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) Gold Certification by including a sunshade system that is responsive to the angle of the sun. What makes this unique is that instead of being put inside the windows, the sunshades will be placed on the exterior for two purposes – the first is to cut the solar heat gain outside the window and the second is for aesthetic purposes. State-of-the-art sunshades that will be used change throughout the day, following the direction of the sun.
