Sigh. Must be nice to have that kind of money. The story I heard was that Leonard Nimoy used to live there. What a view that must have!
The building is interesting in its architecture. The story there is that it was designed by a heroin addict, and the front of the building appears to have a huge needle coming down the front.
We had an absolutely beautiful day and enjoyed exploring much of the west end and Stanley Park during our visit. Vancouver is amazingly green for a city, with many, many trees and little parks throughout. And Stanley Park is simply magnificent.
Other downtown buildings had large trees on penthouse balconies as well. This is a view taken from Granville Island (another amazing part of Vancouver):
Wow.
