55 Alexander - 55 Alexander St

55 Alexander at 55 Alexander Street is an eight level concrete strata in the heart of Gastown's Maple Tree Square, reconstructed in 1999 by Westbank. The 38 unit building delivers a Westbank signature blend of heritage character and modern construction, with a brick facade and arched windows that connect the building to Gastown's late nineteenth century roots.55 Alexander offers a mix of one bedroom, two bedroom, and larger penthouse condos, with floor plans designed to take advantage of the building's distinctive architecture. Many suites feature French doors and wraparound terraces that frame views of the harbour, the North Shore mountains, and the Gastown rooftop landscape. Westbank's late 1990s finish program included premium kitchens, integrated appliances, and oversized windows.Standard amenities include secure underground parking, on site building management, and bike storage.
