Alexis at 27 Alexander Street is a heritage warehouse loft conversion in the heart of Gastown's Maple Tree Square, completed in 1997. The eight level brick and concrete building offers approximately 26 strata loft units in a tightly held strata that defines the warehouse loft character Gastown is known for, sitting steps from Water Street and the historic core of the neighbourhood.
The defining feature of Alexis is the loft architecture itself: high ceilings, oversized industrial windows, exposed brick, and exposed structural detail that connect the building to its early twentieth century warehouse origins. Floor plans range from compact one bedroom lofts to larger two bedroom homes, with some upper level units carrying outdoor terrace space and harbour views.
Alexis suits buyers who want the warehouse loft character of historic Gastown in a building that has aged well into its conversion. Standard amenities include secure parking and on site building management, with the building's compact unit count keeping strata fees competitive and the resident community small.
Location is the headline. Alexis sits at Maple Tree Square, the historic centre of Gastown, with Water Street, the steam clock, and the seawall a short walk away. Stadium Chinatown SkyTrain station and Waterfront SkyTrain station are both within easy reach, putting the entire downtown core, the airport, and the SeaBus to North Vancouver accessible without a car.
For buyers, Alexis offers warehouse loft architecture and a flagship Gastown address at a price point that often outperforms newer Yaletown or Coal Harbour towers. For investors, the area's strong tenant demand from creative professionals, designers, and downtown employees supports steady rental yield. Whether you are a creative professional, a downsizer, or an investor seeking a heritage Gastown footprint, Alexis is one of the more distinctive buildings in the neighbourhood.
